Durham offers its residents a variety of economic opportunities and entertainment and cultural options near Duke University.
Part of North Carolina's Research Triangle, Durham is known as a leader in research, technology, healthcare, and academics. The Bull City handles this diverse mix well and has even earned a top ranking as one of America's best college towns as home to Duke University and NC Central University.
With a rich history as a Native American trading route and later as a major center in the tobacco trade, its economy has continued to evolve, primarily in the science and technology sectors. But successful cities balance work and fun, and Durham does that well with a vibrant art scene boasting more than 20 art galleries. Residents are even treated to a rich theater experience with Broadway shows being hosted at the new Durham Performing Arts Center. City parks and greenways offer a connection to nature, while the city's restaurants, music, and festival offerings provide even more opportunities for fun.
Durham Performing Arts Center, known to locals as DPAC, is the premier live-entertainment destination in Durham! Located in the American Tobacco Historic District next to the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, it showcases entertainers from recording artists to comedians, and Broadway plays!
The Durham Bulls are the Bull City's Tampa Bay Rays Triple-A affiliate, minor league baseball team, offering major league fun! A center of attraction in Durham since 1913, the Durham Bulls are known worldwide most notably for being the subject of the 1988 hit movie, "Bull Durham" starring Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon, and Tim Robbins.
Originally the centerpiece of downtown Durham, once known for its tobacco production, the American Historic Tobacco District is a downtown Durham destination that welcomes over one million people per year. Comprised of office space, restaurants, hotels, a convention center, the Carolina Theater, and American Tobacco Trail for strolling, the entire district is a thoroughly re-imagined area for both work and play.
