High Point is one of three major cities in North Carolina's Piedmont Triad region, along with Greensboro and Winston-Salem. Given High Point's location and relationship to its neighboring cities, it must think regionally when it comes to its economy, housing market, and commercial development context, while also specifically dealing with issues that are hyper-local. Balancing regional realities and locally controlled opportunities was key to setting an effective vision for High Point 2045.
