Clayton Listed in Top 10 for Home Ownership in North Carolina

 When you think Clayton, do you think of home ownership? If not, you should! Clayton is gaining national recognition by being listed as one of the best places for home ownership in North Carolina. NerdWallet, a company that creates data-driven tools that collect information ranging from finance to health, recently did a study that shows Clayton is one of the top then places to buy a home in North Carolina.

The study answers questions that homeowners often ask when seeking to move to a new town: Are homes available? Can they afford to live here? Is the area growing? We are honored to answer yes to all of those questions! Other pieces of the article give nods to Grifols Therapeutics, Novo Nordisk and Caterpillar Inc., which are the major employers in our area. The article also mentions Clayton has steadily shown population growth since 2010!

Night of Networking

Chamber Members gathered on Monday, March 17th at the Night of Networking event, which was sponsored by Johnston Health.

Our next Night of Networking event will be Tuesday, May 20th from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. at The Clayton Center in conjunction with the Business and Community Expo which will take place from 3:00-7:00 p.m. We hope to see you there!
