The tiny town of Rolesville, incorporated in 1837, is one the fastest growing towns in the Triangle. In 2000, the town had slightly over 900 residents. Town officials expect that number to grow to 11,500 by 2012. Rolesville’s growth is fueled by former farms turned into high-end subdivisions. Like neighboring Wake Forest, Rolesville is becoming a bedroom community for workers in Research Triangle Park, Raleigh and the rest of the Triangle.
