Echo Farms
What it’s like to live in Echo Farms
Medical professionals and UNCW staff gravitate to Echo Farms for good reason – you're minutes from both the hospital and campus but in a peaceful setting away from college crowds. The neighborhood surrounds a former golf course now being converted to parks, creating green space you won't find closer to downtown. Most rental properties include screened porches or patios perfect for enjoying North Carolina's extended spring and fall without mosquito battles. Unlike downtown's historic (read: sometimes drafty) rentals, buildings here typically feature better insulation and modern HVAC – crucial during Wilmington's humid summers. You're just far enough from the beach to avoid tourist traffic but close enough for weekday evening visits when the crowds disappear.
