With the "Small-Town Home-Advantage"
Kinston has a rare "small-town home-advantage". It's one of the Nation's Best Kept Secrets. Only 30 Minutes from the Crystal Coast and within a one-hour interstate drive to Raleigh, the State Capital.
Whether you ever go to the coast or the metropolitan Raleigh/Durham you can enjoy a relaxing and personable lifestyle right here in Kinston. We have a below-average Cost of Living, no rush hour traffic, and plenty of things to do here. A great place to live if you work in Goldsboro, Greenville, New Bern or Jacksonville. We are right in the hub of these. Just 30 miles or so to any of these locations! |

| "Love Living Here" |
If you are relocating from a metro area you will be pleasantly surprised at the easy-going, friendly atmosphere afforded to living in a community of approximately 23,000. With over 80 restaurants you will find the typical fast foods and chains, but also those "almost disappearing" individual owned and operated restaurants. See Restaurants
Relocating to Kinston with employment in Greenville, New Bern, Jacksonville or Goldsboro makes sense. You avoid the metro issues of traffic and a higher cost of housing. You only have a 30-40 minutes drive on excellent 4-lane highways. You will have the best of both worlds.

Kinston was originally named Kingston, named for King George III of England, but the name was changed in 1784 following the Revolutionary War. Not only was Kinston here before the Revolutionary War but was a major battlefield of the Civil War giving it a wealth of over two hundred years American history. More..
