About Student Housing in Raleigh
Raleigh, North Carolina is the state capital and a fast-growing tech and research hub, with North Carolina State University giving it a huge student population. NC State sprawls along Hillsborough Street, the unofficial student drag, while Centennial Campus stretches south into a live-work research district. As an anchor of the Research Triangle, Raleigh draws young professionals and students alike. The Village District is a walkable shopping and dining pocket beloved by students, and downtown stacks the State Capitol, museums, and Fayetteville Street nightlife. The Capital Area Greenway threads more than 100 miles of trails through the city, Pullen Park sits by NC State, and Dorothea Dix Park offers 300-plus acres of meadow with skyline views.
