Although originally named after the abolitionist Quaker family, the Kings, the family never knew they had a whole town named after them! The area was originally known as King's Cabin, with their domicile used as a landmark for those in the area. In 1894, the name was simply shortened to King, and although the family decided not to stay, the name stuck.
If you're looking for a family-oriented place to live, the City of King is it. It's one of the places where families come first and where the residents, approximately 7,000 strong, feel safe within its 5.8 square miles. That's because it is actually safe and was in fact voted among the 50 Safest Cities in North Carolina by SafeWise, an expert in the security industry. In fact, King placed 33 on the list, an accolade that speaks volumes for the quality of this community. The community of King has cemented its roots and is a thriving community in Stokes County, with some sections of the town located in Forsyth. It has become a flourishing area within the Triad, which is comprised of municipalities within the boundaries of the three major cities of Greensboro, High Point and Winston-Salem.
