I've always found that the best way to find out about the makeup of a neighborhood is to drive the area and even knock on a few doors and speak with the neighbors.
Here is the Wake County School website so that you can check on the schools you mentioned: http://www.wcpss.net/
I live in the area and it has always been a good neigborhood for my kids with friends, parks, pools etc. so convenient.
Check out the link Bonnie provided for general school information. You can also go to http://www.ncreportcards.org/src/ for more information. I can tell you that Carroll has a new principal in place so recent information is more indicative of prior administration.
Good afternoon! Any of our agents here in Raleigh Durham are here to offer you friendly advice about any home you might find. As my colleagues have pointed out, there are places to find school rankings, and personal testimonials about the area. Not to mention, Raleigh has been named the #1 Best City in America!
Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.
