Without a doubt, Boone is one of the best towns in all of America!
For example, here in Watauga County all eight K-8 schools are ranked as Schools of Excellence, a claim no other district in the state can match.  You have TRULY safe and friendly neighborhoods, a top-ranked regional medical center and the full range of shopping alternatives and dining adventures.  The Boone and High County area have something for everyone.   The mountains and the natural, scenic beauty are some of the region's greatest assets. That's why folks want to live here, visit here, summer here, go to school here, ski here...and return year after year or just stay for good!
