Holly Springs, North CarolinaThe Town of Holly Springs in southwest Wake County had its beginnings as a crossroads near springs of fresh water at a spot where holly trees were numerous. Travelers along the road from Raleigh to the Cape Fear River and on to Fayetteville or those traveling from Hillsborough to Smithfield stopped by the springs to quench their thirst. The town remained fairly small, until the 1990's when commuters to nearby Raleigh saw the potential to live in an area that was lovely, and convenient. Holly Springs is only 15 miles to Raleigh and 6 miles to Cary. Today, 14,000 people call Holly Springs home and that number is projected to grow to about 25,000 in the next four to five years.
