Some call it “The People’s Republic of Carrboro” but this town has much more to offer than hipster cred and dreadlocks.
Carrboro emulates style as a hidden gem of the Triangle area, one that students don’t often discover until their later years at UNC. Take a stroll down West Franklin Street into the heart of this independent town. Sip a coffee at Open Eye Café, relax on the lawn of Weaver Street Market and explore the vibrant shops, houses and people.
