Western North Carolina Mountains

What is it like to live in Western North Carolina?

The Asheville area is progressive yet uncomplicated. We value the simple things in life and respect the beauty of our mountains, the flow of our rivers, near-mountain and long-range views, treasured trees, good food, natural fun, and diverse community. We relish the large undisturbed spaces and seek art and music to inspire. The mountain communities in and around Asheville are less crowded places and invite all to pause.
