📰 News we're reading

• 12 North Carolina Neighborhoods That Stand Out for Peace and Quiet (newsbreak.com) — Wrightsboro makes a statewide list of quiet neighborhoods, but its 99.6 score doesn't account for airplane noise from Wilmington International Airport. The ranking uses CoreLogic's March 2025 data, which models quiet through density and demographics rather than sound measurements—a key distinction for anyone weighing the community's peaceful reputation.
