"Forsyth County is projected to be the epicenter of the growth, doubling its population to about 430,000.
“I think it’s great. It attracts families and young adults and professionals to the areas and all the growth, especially what we’re seeing over here, is pretty amazing,” one Forsyth County resident said.
“That’s a lot more people coming and you know, I think the city needs to expand a bit more for that to happen,” another resident said."
