Greensboro, North Carolina, is full of charm, character, and community—and its neighborhoods reflect that. Whether you're looking for historic homes, walkability, top schools, or quiet streets with big trees, there's a perfect pocket of the city for everyone. Here are some of our favorite neighborhoods in Greensboro (in no particular order!):
Fisher Park
One of Greensboro’s oldest neighborhoods, Fisher Park is beloved for its tree-lined streets, beautiful early 20th-century homes, and the picturesque park at its heart. It’s walkable to downtown restaurants, shops, and the Tanger Performing Arts Center, making it a perfect choice for those who want to be close to the action while enjoying the charm of a residential neighborhood.
Irving Park
Elegant and classic, Irving Park centers around the Greensboro Country Club and boasts some of the most stunning homes in the city. Large lots, mature landscaping, and proximity to great shopping and dining make this a highly sought-after neighborhood for families and professionals alike.
Lindley Park
A lively, eclectic community with a creative spirit. Lindley Park features craftsman-style homes, cozy bungalows, and lots of local flavor. The walkable neighborhood is anchored by the Greensboro Arboretum and beloved local spots like Bestway Grocery and Hops Burger Bar. It’s a good choice for people who prefer a laid-back vibe and a strong sense of community.
Sunset Hills
Sunset Hills is famous for its holiday cheer—each December, residents string giant lighted balls high into the trees, drawing people from across the Triad. But beyond the festive glow, Sunset Hills offers charming older homes, walkability, and a great location close to Greensboro's downtown, Friendly Shopping Center, and several parks.
Old Irving Park
A slightly different slice from Irving Park proper, Old Irving Park features a mix of historic and custom homes with loads of Southern charm. Tree-lined streets, rolling hills, and a prestigious feel give it a timeless allure.
Starmount
This established neighborhood offers a mix of mid-century homes and modern renovations, and it's just minutes from Friendly Shopping Center and downtown. Starmount has a lot to offer: easy access to greenways and parks plus its welcoming feel make it popular for growing families.
New Irving Park
While still elegant, New Irving Park has more recent construction and a slightly more suburban feel compared to its older counterpart. Larger homes, manicured lawns, and a tranquil atmosphere appeal to those looking for a newer home in a classic area.
Lake Jeanette
Nestled around a scenic lake in north Greensboro, Lake Jeanette offers a peaceful, nature-focused lifestyle with a focus on community. The neighborhood features beautiful homes, walking trails, and access to private lake amenities. It’s a favorite for those who love serene views, a more relaxed pace, and upscale living with convenience to schools, shopping, and major roads.
