About Boone

Boone is a somewhat small town located in the state of North Carolina. With a population of 13,447 people and four constituent neighborhoods, Boone is the 72nd largest community in North Carolina.

Boone is a small town where college students really create the town feel and character. So many small towns have lost population over the last 20-30 years that having the local college presence in the Boone area, with all of the energy of the students filling area dorms and apartments each fall, really helps Boone maintain a good economy.

Boone is a small town, and as such doesn't have a public transit system that people use to get to and from their jobs every day.
