The town of Chapel Hill, known as the Southern Part of Heaven, is a picturesque village with a modern twist, but still has over 50,000 inhabitants. The small town flair has been retained in the neighbourhoods, but it is still a city with its own identity.

When the Tar Heels play, you can't hope to understand the city unless you've experienced a championship - and won basketball. With a music scene that quietly influences the global stage, it's the kind of city that Portlandia doesn't need to inspire you before it recognizes its value. Chapel Hill shares a sense of community that is nowhere else to be found.

The sports at UNC are also among the nation's best, with some of the worst athletes in the world. The basketball team and the girls' football team are two dominant programs for UNC, while the other is emerging quickly. The NC State Wolfpack also competes with the Wake Forest Demon Deacons, who live farther west in the state.

All three are in the NC triangle, and that is why they compete so strongly. Chapel Hill is actually closer to Cary, which has a population of 150,000, than Raleigh, the capital of North Carolina.

Chapel Hill ranks among the top 5 percent with well-paid single women and college and professional degrees, according to the 2010 census. The median income per household in this city is $51,690, and the median income of a family of four in Chapel Hill was $91,049 in 2010. There are 51 families in nearly 21,000 households, but the average income of these families in North Carolina as a whole is about $71,095.

Chapel Hill is also home to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, which happens to be the largest public university in the United States and the second largest in North America. This gives you an idea of why college dominates all sports and why it hates rival Duke so much. This city has a large number of restaurants, theaters and performing arts venues, as well as a high school and college. It reopened in September after a major renovation and took the top spot as the average SAT score - ranking North Charlotte Public School District.

The team hatched Michael Jordan's world - changing talents, and for years the Tar Heels passed rivals Duke, one of the best teams in the country and the second-best team in North America.

Downtown Chapel Hill is home to Franklin Street, a variety of restaurants, bars, shops and restaurants in the heart of the city. It is the location of one of North Carolina's most popular music venues, Merge Records was founded in this city, and Bruce Springsteen has made it his mission to perform continuously in Chapel Hills.

The annual Chapel Hill street festival is one of the most important events and takes place in October, where the streets are filled with vendors, food trucks, handmade beer and live bands. Live music is played on the lawn at Weaver Street Market and groove to the popular Jazz More Brunch series on Thursday and Sunday. On Thursday night, listen to local acts and watch Carrboro's free outdoor gigs at Weaver Street Market or Saturday night's live concerts at Chapel Hill Civic Center.

Chapel Hill's servers are happy to help visitors navigate the city and are known for their friendly and friendly staff. This includes a regional breakfast, prawns and grains, as well as an atmosphere that invites people to linger, meet and work in the common space.

Major neighborhoods include Chapel Hill's downtown, the University of North Carolina and some smaller neighborhoods. Local attractions include the UNC Chapelhill Campus and the university's new basketball arena. The basketball museum next to the arena is always open, and there's a delicious $3 burrito to buy at a place called Cosmic Cantina, high-quality performing arts, or even a game of basketball at the new UNC football stadium (try getting in!). If you visit the city during the season (November to March), do not forget the many restaurants, bars, cafes, restaurants and shops as well as a variety of shops.

Meadowmont Village and Southern Village are new urban neighborhoods that include a mix of residential, commercial, retail and office space in the heart of the city.

The five health schools and UNC hospitals make up the largest health care system in the United States and are grouped under the umbrella of the UNC Health System, the largest public health system in the nation. The UNC College of Agricultural and Natural Resources Sciences and the Department of Agriculture were founded at the university in 1904.
