"I hope you like beige...."

I read a review one time that summed it up perfectly. The person said "I hope you like beige!". Cary is a predominantly transplant community. If you are from, NY, NJ,OH, MI you will find tons of people to hang out with. If you are a NC native you will quickly become a novelty at social gatherings. Everybody is Tech and Pharma. Great place to live with kids, affordable housing, great schools, beautiful parks and playgrounds. Just don't expect that famous Southern hospitality.
