Homes for Rent in Franklinville, NC

Franklinville brings a small-town vibe and a rural atmosphere to the Greensboro area. Ranch-style homes and Nationals are more spread out, so people get more land for their money out here. The town used to be a textile mill town, with mills situated along the river. While the mills long since closed, the new Toyota battery plant nearby brings new opportunities and jobs to the region. The Deep River runs through town, lined with the Deep River Rail Trail. Riverside Park overlooks the river and offers a playground and baseball field. Ramseur Lake is another fishing and boating spot for locals. Students attend the B-rated Randolph County School System. Franklinville Diner is the town's sole restaurant, highlighting local history through photos on the walls. Shortstop's Burgers and Shakes in Ramseur is another option. Locals can go to either Ramseur or Asheboro for their grocery needs. People can get around via car, taking highways like U.S. Route 64 to Asheboro, 8 miles away, or North Carolina Route 22 to Greensboro, 28 miles away. Local events like the craft fairs and Christmas parade highlight Franklinville's community spirit.
