The Neighborhood:
Welcome to Asheville, NC, notably one of the most vibrant and welcoming cities in the United States! What began as an art colony back in 1792 soon became a hub for prominent statesmen. Today, there are countless museums and historical sites commemorating the city’s rich history. Nestled in western North Carolina’s own Blue Ridge Mountains, this city offers some of the most breathtaking views and plenty of outdoor activities. Locals appreciate the vibrant arts culture, truly historic architecture, and community-centric lifestyle. One of the most iconic area landmarks in Asheville is George Vanderbilt’s Biltmore Estate, a sprawling complex that is still America’s largest home yet today. Asheville is also home to the Basilica of Saint Lawrence, the University of North Carolina at Asheville, an eclectic downtown nightlife, and an exploding culinary scene. Come and experience for yourself why residents love calling Asheville home.
