Kernersville North Carolina

Kernersville North Carolina

Traditionally, Kernersville NC was positioned as the center of the Triad, located equally between Winston-Salem, Greensboro, and High Point. However, Kernersville’s position as a central point in the Triad is now changing. The emergence of the Piedmont Triad International Airport area as a major development center has become more of a central Triad focal point

Kernersville has experienced a steady growth pattern during the past 70 years as a direct result of Kernersville and the Triads metropolitan job growth. Job growth attracts new residents. Available undeveloped land, water, sewer and road capacity has supported the growth

Job growth is the major contributor towards the growth of residential and commercial developments. The most recent Winston-Salem, Greensboro and High Point area job growth projection has been completed by NCDOT and using the job base of 1994, it was projected that by the year 2025 the job base would grow from 276,000 to 379,000, a 37% increase. Kernersville’s central location and development potential will cause it to have a higher rate of job growth. Also, Kernersville has diversity in its job sector, which lessens the impact in slow down in specific job sectors

The Triad is the second largest economic center of the Carolinas, with large finance, distribution, and manufacturing sectors. One large regional bank, BB&T, has their headquarters in the Triad. The Triad is regarded as the furniture design and manufacturing capital of the world. Major educational institutions include Wake Forest, UNC-Greensboro, High Point University, Winston Salem State University, and NC A&T University are located in the Triad. The major medical facilities include Baptist Hospital, Forsyth Hospital, High Point Regional and Moses Cone Hospital

Kernersville NC occupies an important position in the Triad’s residential, commercial and industrial real estate markets due to its central location. Kernersville’s growing commercial and industrial job base is attracting new residential development. Also, families find Kernersville a convenient location to the multiple job centers found throughout the Triad
