Overview of Knightdale

Located about 15 miles from downtown Raleigh, Knightdale, N.C., is a growing suburban community. In 2010, it had a population of 11,401 people, which showed an astonishing growth of 91.4 percent since 2000. Those searching for Knightdale apartments for rent may find themselves part of the boom.

The Knightdale area's first settler was John Hinton, who settled there around 1790. Over time, numerous other settlers came to the area and established businesses, homes, schools, and churches. Hinton guided the area through its part of the American Revolution, where he played the role of patriot and fought in the Moore's Creek Bridge battle. Three of the seven Hinton plantations - The Oaks, Midway and Beaver Dam - still remain. After the Revolutionary War, the area continued to play an important role in North Carolina history. As Raleigh saw increased growth, Knightdale grew alongside it. The city finally incorporated in 1927.
