North Carolina Counties

From Murphy to Manteo, North Carolina doesn't just have it all. It invented the concept. Mountains that make you pull over and stare. Coastlines that make you forget you ever had responsibilities. Farmland so rich and wide it looks like the earth is showing off. One hundred counties. One hundred reasons to love a state that never runs out of them. Each one distinct, each one proud, each one proof that North Carolina contains more character per square mile than most states manage in their entirety. Whether you were born here, got here as fast as you could, or are still working on it — there's a county in this collection with your name on it.
