Greensboro Overview
Greensboro, NC, has a thriving culture and arts scene and is filled with festivals and events for residents to enjoy year-round. It's also centrally located in the state, which means people can leave their rental homes in Greensboro and be at a beach on the Atlantic Ocean in a short time.

People also enjoy a lower cost of living in Greensboro than the national average. Residents have access to multiple high-quality universities here and the city has had a stable and growing job market for many years.
What is the history of Greensboro?
The area around the city was originally called Capefair when Quaker migrants from Pennsylvania settled here in about 1750. The settlement was renamed Greensboro after Revolutionary War Major General Nathanael Greene. The city's population started to take off when it was made a railroad stop in the 1840s. In the 1890s, large textile plants were established here and Greensboro officially grew from a village to a city. Textiles remain a major part of the city and state's economy to this day, and Greensboro remains a major regional freight hub for railroad traffic.

Residents in Greensboro enjoy four distinct seasons in the subtropical humid climate. The winter months are fairly mild, with January high temperatures hovering around 38 degrees.

Thunderstorms are very common in the spring and summer because of the high humidity levels. The city averages more than 30 days every summer when temperatures climb above 90 degrees.

Greensboro experiences weekday rush hour traffic from 7 to 9 a.m. and from 4 to 6 p.m. The average commute time is about 21 minutes, compared to almost 27 minutes nationally. Traffic is not as severe as what you will encounter in bigger cities, although it does get congested during rush hour. Interstate 40 and Interstate 85 are the two main freeways where commuters are most likely to run into congestion. The Greensboro Urban Loop is a bypass freeway that encircles the city. When the Loop was finally opened in 2023, it helped to ease traffic congestion in the city significantly.

Live shows have been performed in the 2,200-seat auditorium since 1927. The Jefferson Standard Building was the first skyscraper in Downtown Greensboro.
