Jacksonville, NC is growing by leaps and bounds!

If you've been in the Jacksonville, NC recently, you've noticed a lot of road construction, new routes, new signs, and lots of new stores coming to town!
Recently published in the Jacksonville Daily News, an article highlights a lot of the new growth Onslow County will see this year!  Residents can expect another 30 businesses coming into our local area.

•New Wal-Mart in Richlands, NC!  Not only will it add convenience, cut down grocery trip time, but the Richlands Wal-Mart will provide about 300 job opportunities to the area!
•Tons of new restaurants and eateries coming to the Jacksonville area- Chuy's Tex Mex, Zaxbys, Tropical Smoothie, Asian Bistro, Krispy Kreme, Chipotle, and yes- you guessed it- another McDonald's & Taco Bell!  Rumors have been circling about another Starbucks, but I haven't seen anything to get hopeful about yet.
•The Jacksonville Mall is planning to expand their footprint as well.
•Downtown Jacksonville has been experiencing a face lift with the rehabilitation of many of the older buildings, which allows the integration of Jacksonville's vintage historical charm with a breath of fresh air.  You'll see Biagio's Italian Coffee & Espresso Bar under construction on New Bridge Street, with spaces for more local eateries and shops!

City planners expect more commercial growth in the Piney Green area, once road construction completes.  Here we grow again!  Jacksonville, NC is becoming a retail landmark for surrounding areas, bringing the economy up and helping to provide jobs to residents.

For information on how this can impact the local housing market, give me a call!  I'd love to sit down at one of the new eateries with you and discuss what it looks like!  For an up to date market analysis on your home, check out this helpful link!
