Why Live in Morehead City

Morehead City, North Carolina, established in 1861, has transformed from a bustling port city to a popular vacation destination known as the Crystal Coast. With a population of nearly 10,000, the city offers a variety of home styles, including early- to mid-1900s Craftsman and cottage-style homes, ranch-style houses, colonials from the late-1900s, and contemporary homes. The highly rated Carteret County Public Schools serve the area, with nine elementary schools, five middle schools, and four high schools, along with Carteret Community College offering undergraduate programs. Morehead City is just 2 miles north of sandy beaches, accessible via the Atlantic Beach Bridge, and features Fort Macon State Park with sandy trails, fishing inlets, and a preserved fort. The city has several marinas and Shevans Park, which includes a playground, tennis courts, and picnic areas. Shopping and dining are concentrated along Interstate 42, with big-box stores, grocery markets, and local restaurants like the popular El’s Drive-In. Annual events such as the Carolina Chocolate Festival and the Emerald Isle St. Patrick's Festival draw visitors year-round. Despite its coastal charm, Morehead City faces flooding concerns during hurricanes, but residents benefit from a 25% discount on flood insurance premiums. Major employers include the North Carolina Port, the U.S. Coast Guard station at Fort Macon, and Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, located 15 miles north. Commuters use Interstate 42, also known as U.S. Route 70, with Coastal Carolina Regional Airport 30 miles away.
