Why Live in East Durham

East Durham stretches from downtown Durham to Interstate 885. Its mix of modern housing styles and historic buildings reflects both contemporary and vintage charm. Homes range from ranch-style fixer-uppers to new neo-colonial houses. Some residents are concerned about the loss of older homes due to new development. Among the area's grassroots organizations is Communities in Partnership, which has served East Durham for over a decade. East Durham shares in some of the legacy of Durham's historic Black Wall Street. Beginning in the late 19th century, the district around Parrish Street downtown saw a rise in Black entrepreneurship. Today, vibrant Black-owned businesses in East Durham, such as Congress Social Bar and Proximity Brewing Company, continue that heritage. Sherwood Park and Merrick-Moore Park are often-visited spots for sports and relaxation. Annual events in the area include the Youth Summit and Kwanzaafest. GoDurham buses provide free transportation throughout the city. Chapel Hill and Raleigh are roughly 14 miles and 23 miles away, respectively. Proximity to major roads brings congestion and noise to the northern and southern sections of the community.
