Fuquay Varina's Economic Development Hasn't Slowed Down

Over the last 10 years, there has been a significant rise in the number of new home developments in Fuquay Varina, NC as well as expansion in downtown areas. Some community members have raised concerns and questioned whether the rate of new construction is too fast.

Still, concerns about the lack of downtown public parking, public utilities needing improvement, and the potential for too many cookie-cutter communities have not been able to quell the town's fast-paced growth.

"We've been growing at a rate faster than 8.5 percent. We've cemented ourselves as one of the larger municipalities here in Wake County. We're planning for more and more new development to occur. A lot of it over the last four to five years has been residential development." ­­- Adam Mitchell, Fuquay Varina's Town Manager2
