White Oak
Shopping and dining at White Oak Crossings
At White Oak’s retail core, residents can make a quick grocery trip at Target, or stay a while and enjoy at meal Alpaca Peruvian Charcoal Chicken. The local chain pairs their signature rotisserie chicken with yuca fries and other Latin-inspired side dishes. There are also plenty of well-known chain options like Chili's and TGI Fridays. After lunch, it's easy to catch a matinee movie at Regal White Oak. Bass Pro Shops has an aquarium and an archery range, in addition to its usual outdoorsy items. Additionally, this section of the neighborhood is a center for health care, with many dentists, doctors and an urgent care facility.A variety of styles in a variety of subdivisions
Though some older homes are scattered about, White Oak mainly comprises new home construction that varies in size and style. "This is a good area for first-time buyers and investors," says Heartstring Realty Realtor Carrie Guerreiro, who has sold five homes in the area. "It's the right price point." Most new and renovated Craftsman, Cape Cod and ranch-style homes often list between $300,000 and $800,000. Farther from the mall, buyers may find country estates ranging from $1 million to $1.5 million. There are also a few townhouses, which are generally priced between $300,000 and $400,000.Lots of open space with things to do
Centennial Park is a sprawling 10-acre space that features a play area, soccer fields, walking trails and picnic shelters. The largest nearby green space is the 20-acre Garner Recreational Park, which has two lighted baseball fields, a playground, a picnic shelter and over 2 miles of hiking trails. It's also home to North Garner Dog Park, an off-leash space for both big and small pets. A noteworthy attraction in the area is Juniper Level Botanic Garden, a not-for-profit, 28-acre educational, research and display garden. Open eight weekends of the year, the Botanic Garden is filled with more than 27,000 types of native, exotic and rare plants.A newer high school established in 2018
Though all within the Wake County Public School System, school zones vary greatly in White Oak. Prospective residents should check which schools are assigned to their address. One possible pipeline starts with Bryan Road Elementary, which receives an A-minus grade from Niche. East Garner Middle School is a magnet school with a Niche score of B-minus. Magnet schools also accept students from outside the school zone; admission may depend on grades, test scores, portfolios and/or auditions. Meanwhile, South Garner High, which graduated its first class in 2021, scores a C-plus.Easy highway access for a smooth commute
Downtown Raleigh is anywhere from 9 to 20 miles north of various points in White Oak, but rush hour traffic can extend commute times. Raleigh-Durham International Airport and Research Triangle Park, a hub of tech sector employers, are both within a 30-mile drive via I-40 West. Most residents rely on their cars to commute, but there is a park and ride at the shopping center for those interested in public transportation. "Interstates 40 and 95 run through here, making it very convenient for people traveling to Raleigh or the other way to Durham or Chapel Hill," says Adaze Realty Realtor Simon Camara, who lives nearby and lists in this neighborhood.
