Borrowing its name from the shopping plaza it surrounds, the Patterson Place neighborhood extends south along I-40 from Durham-Chapel Hill Boulevard. Heavily wooded with plenty of open green space, this neighborhood feels somewhat rural -- but it is only about eight miles southwest of Downtown Durham and roughly three miles northeast of Downtown Chapel Hill. Residents can commute from Patterson Place easily to Research Triangle Park, less than 15 minutes away.

The Patterson Place shopping plaza provides everything residents need, from groceries at Kroger to shoes at DSW to pet supplies at PetSmart. Durham-Chapel Hill Boulevard is lined with shops and restaurants, and the popular Southpoint Mall is a few minutes south, providing a wide selection of stores, restaurants, and a movie theater.
