Why Live in Forest City

Forest City is a neighborhood where nature and small-town charm coexist, offering a variety of things to do. Surrounded by parks, forests, and trails, it provides ample opportunities for outdoor recreation, while its vibrant downtown area features a mix of shops, restaurants, and events. The community is known for its midcentury renovated homes, including ranch-style Colonial Revival, Craftsman, and Tudor Revival houses, many of which are within walking distance of Main Street. Forest City-Dunbar Elementary is a well-rated school serving the area. Residents enjoy local green spaces like Crowe Park and Charles R. Sumney Park, as well as the Forest City Municipal Golf Course and the Thermal Belt Rail Trail. Main Street is a hub of activity with historic buildings housing eateries such as Copper Penny Grill and Pie Safe Baking Company. The neighborhood hosts events throughout the year, including a popular Christmas celebration. For groceries, residents have options like Ingles and ALDI, while larger cities such as Asheville and Charlotte are about 60 miles away for more extensive shopping and dining. Forest City is considered safer than the national average, with a crime risk comparable to the national level. The community's location along Highway 74 and proximity to major interstates make it a feasible commute to nearby cities.
