Located in the Piedmont region of the eastern United States, Carolina Preserve in Cary is near North Carolina’s Research Triangle and RDU International Airport.  It is bordered on the north and east by Raleigh, on the north and west by Research Triangle Park and Morrisville, on the south by Apex and Holly Springs, and on the west by the Jordan Lake area. The town is hilly, with much of the undeveloped land covered in dense woods. Several creeks and small lakes dot the area, most notably Lake Crabtree in the north. Carolina Preserve is in the northeast corner of Chatham County and borders the Lake Jordan Nature Preserve.

The Research Triangle ranks among the top in physicians per capita and is home to two of the nation’s top medical teaching and research hospitals, UNC Chapel Hill and Duke University. Three major medical centers operate in the Triangle offering residents an impressive range of healthcare services (WakeMed Health and Hospitals, UNC / REX Healthcare Systems and Duke University School of Medicine Hospitals).
