The agrarian roots of Wake County meet the expanding suburban footprint of Raleigh in this 2010 survey. Significant institutional land use is evident at the North Carolina State University Research Units, which occupy a large central corridor alongside Yates Millpond Dam and the NC State University Farm Unit Number Two Dam. The landscape is deeply tied to its water systems, notably Lake Wheeler and Lake Benson, which are fed by the winding course of Swift Creek. Smaller historical nodes like McCullers Crossroads and Macedonia anchor the rural-to-residential transition.
