PODS Moving & Storage Greensboro

Greensboro has a population of roughly 287,000 as of 2016, and that number is increasing continually. Thousands of workers come to the area each year to contribute to the city's growing manufacturing and retail industries. And along with that influx has come a budding community and expanding local culture, making room for new bars, restaurants, and attractions while still preserving the city's history.

Despite Greensboro's growth, you'll have no problem finding peace and quiet nearby. Dozens of parks are scattered throughout the area, and larger spaces such as Bur-Mil Park and Hagan-Stone Park are within an easy drive of anywhere in Greensboro. In the summer, you can reach North Carolina's beaches with a roughly three-hour road trip. Lake Townsend, Lake Brandt, and Lake Higgins are just north of downtown if you'd like to cool off closer to the city. Wet'n Wild Emerald Pointe Water Park is also in Greensboro.

The city is also home to some gorgeous, peaceful, and fun neighborhoods. Woodridge, for example, is between the Greensboro Science Center and Lake Jeanette. Closer to downtown you'll find the Fisher Park neighborhood near the Greensboro Children's Museum and other green spaces. Spots such as College Hill and other neighborhoods east of downtown are popular for their proximity to the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and Greensboro College.
