Beaufort and Down East
Beaufort, N.C., and the Down East communities are family-oriented places. These are safe, small, close-knit communities where crime rates are low, the schools are good, neighbors help neighbors, and children grow up with an appreciation for nature. That’s why so many people who grew up here return to raise their families after they’ve spent time in bigger cities. And that’s why people who vacation here often dream of moving here for good.
In this section we provide information on the services you need to care for your family, whether you have young children, grown children or four-legged furry ones. We include information on public and private schools, child care, caring for pets, hospitals, medical centers, alternative healthcare, worship, volunteering, colleges and community colleges, research facilities, green and eco-friendly living, staying safe at the beach, and more.
