Despite this influx of new Apexers, Apex has held onto it’s small town charm with a bustling historic downtown with it’s quaint shops and walkability. Being named Money magazine’s #1 small town in America in 2015 has continued to push growth and development, and is due in large part to it’s active social events calendar and many parks.
