Why Live in Empie Park

Empie Park in Wilmington is a vibrant neighborhood known for its namesake green space and the Althea Gibson Tennis Complex, a community hub with 24 lighted courts. Located along U.S. Highway 17, Empie Park is conveniently situated about a mile from the University of North Carolina Wilmington, 15 minutes from the beach, and 10 minutes from downtown. The neighborhood offers a variety of things to do, including shopping at Independence Mall and Hanover Center, both within walking distance. Dining options range from national chains like Panera Bread to local favorites such as Little Loaf Bakery & Schoolhouse. The area features Craftsman bungalows, cozy cottages, and ranch-style homes, mostly built in the 1950s and 1960s, with modest yards. While the neighborhood has a risk of flooding, it's lower than areas closer to the Intracoastal Waterway. Empie Park is zoned for New Hanover County Schools, with John T. Hoggard High School receiving high marks. The Cross City Trail, a 15-mile path, runs through the park, connecting to Anne McCrary Park. Public transit is accessible, with four Wave Transit bus routes serving the area. The neighborhood's streetcar history contributes to its walkable and bikeable nature, with Park Avenue featuring a lighted path and the historic Audubon Trolley Station.
