When it comes to Apex NC real estate, it is no secret that location is key. Not only do homebuyers want to be located near to where they work, they also want to be able to easily access the things they need for day-to-day living, such as groceries, gas and other supplies. By building a new Walmart in Apex, NC, residents of the neighborhood can continue to enjoy the proximity to Raleigh without needing to drive into the city in order to purchase daily necessities.

Considering that the new Walmart is open 24 hours per day and offers 176,000 square feet of shopping space, residents of Apex are sure to find the store to be a convenient place to shop. This particular Walmart also implements the company’s newest design strategies, which means it is laid out in a way that is meant to make the shopping experience as simple as possible. This includes clustering certain items together – such as putting the pharmacy near to the groceries – as well as widening the aisles and lowering the shelving so items are at eye level.

To celebrate its grand opening, the new Walmart also awarded $24,000 worth of grant money to several community organizations. These included:

• Al.V. Baucom Elementary School
• Apex High Schoo• Apex Middle Schol
• Lower Neuse River Basis Association
• Read and Feed
• Town of Apex Fir Department
• Town of Apex Police Department
• Western Wake Crisis Ministry
• White Oak Foundation

Obviously, having a business in the area that gives back to its community is another factor to consider when deciding where to live. Thanks to Walmart’s desire to give back to the community, combined with the fact that Apex has so many worthwhile community organizations to select from, are just two more reasons why so many want to call the area home.
