Oak Ridge, North CarolinaOak Ridge, NC features some of the most luxurious homes in the Guilford County/Greensboro area while maintaining a community atmosphere and wholesome family experience. Prestigious homes are typically situated on an acre or more far enough from areas of employment to enjoy fresh, clean air, but close enough for a short commute. Incorporated in 1998 in northwest Guilford County, to quote News & Record writer Daniel Nonte, the town "finds itself at a crossroads between a rural past and an increasingly suburban future...more and more cars drive the country roads that wind past...weather-beaten barns." This idyllic community also has a rich past. The Oak Ridge Easter Horse Show has been a prominent yearly event for the past 55 years. The Old Mill of Guilford still stands and operates as a genuine water mill, and Oak Ridge Military Academy was established 150 years ago. Located off Highway 68 North, less than 5 minutes from Kernersville, less than 10 minutes from Greensboro or the Triad International Airport, and approximately 12 minutes from High Point, local families love the Northwest School district as well as the easy commutes to work locations. Like the rest of the Piedmont Triad area, the climate in Oak Ridge is temperate, with four seasons. Summers tend to be warm and sometimes humid. Fall and spring are mild and full of vivid color. Winters are refreshingly chilly, but rarely cold and are almost always short ? snow provides occasional excitement.
