Arden is a unique area that blends rural, suburb, and industrial into one city. This community offers easy access to an array of charming small towns, including Fletcher, Mills River, and Biltmore Forest. Although Arden feels a long way away from big-city living, Asheville is just 10 miles north of town. Breweries, restaurants, shops, and more await outside of Arden. Along the way you’ll pass the Biltmore, an iconic attraction known for its historic architecture, lavish gardens, and beautiful winery nearby. Residents have easy access to U.S. Highway 25 and Interstate 26 to make things even easier. Arden is home to Lake Julian and sits just a few miles from the Ashville Regional Airport. Apartments range from affordable to upscale, so there’s something for everyone.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
