About Apex

Take a journey back in time to Apex, a charming town with more than 60 colorfully restored commercial and residential structures dating from 1870 to 1940. This turn-of-the-century destination blends the old with the new, celebrating its historical railroad roots with modern-day charm to earn itself the title of "Best Place to Live in America," according to MONEY magazine. A constantly expanding greenway connects Apex's parks, recreation areas, and playgrounds to the communities you live in, giving the place a small-town feel despite its 72,000+ population. Apex's median age is 37, making it an ideal location for new and growing families looking to settle down. And everything within The Triangle is just a short drive away—Durham is just 25 minutes away, and you can reach the Raleigh-Durham airport in less than 20 minutes. Join Apex's rapidly growing community to enjoy small-town vibes combined with big-city amenities.
