Small town growing as a Raleigh suburb
With the increased influence of Research Triangle Park and the shifting real estate landscape around Raleigh, many surrounding suburbs are changing rapidly. But even with an influx of new housing and subdivisions, Youngsville is preserving its small-town charm. “Youngsville is undergoing a time of growth unparalleled in the history of Frankin County. The growth is astronomical due to our proximity to the economic engine that is Raleigh,” says Nathan Path, Youngsville’s Town Manager. “The projection in our comprehensive plan shows the town potentially being 20,000 people by 2050, similar to what Cary and Holly Springs and Knightdale did before. But that small-town feel where you know everybody is important and is something that we’re still striving to maintain.”

New subdivisions and infrastructure in Youngsville
Older streets around Youngsville’s downtown have a variety of classic suburban homes, like ranch style and minimal traditional homes, as well as historical Queen Annes. Youngsville also has newly developed neighborhoods scattered throughout, like Holden Creek Preserve and Winston Ridge. These neighborhoods have new traditional and Craftsman-inspired homes in subdivisions ranging from $350,000 to $450,000. In addition to new neighborhoods, the town is striving to develop pedestrian infrastructure as it grows. “Every effort is being made to increase walkability to and from the downtown through zoning regulation and development approvals,” Page says. “Every neighborhood built along one of the major thoroughfares now has greenways as part of that development.”
