GREENSBORO, NC

Greensboro is a city in and the county seat of Guilford County, North Carolina, United States. It is the third-most populous city in North Carolina after Charlotte and Raleigh, the 69th-most populous city in the United States, and the most populous city in the Piedmont Triad metropolitan region. At the 2020 census, its population was 299,035; at the 2022 census estimate, its population was 301,115. Three major interstate highways (Interstate 40, Interstate 85, and Interstate 73) in the Piedmont region of central North Carolina were built to intersect at this city.

In 1808, Greensborough (the spelling before 1895) was planned around a central courthouse square to succeed Guilford Court House as the county seat. The county courts were thus placed closer to the county's geographical center, a location more easily reached at the time by the majority of the county's citizens, who traveled by horse or on foot.

In 2003, the previous Greensboro–Winston-Salem–High Point Metropolitan Statistical Area was redefined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget. The region was separated into the Greensboro-High Point Metropolitan Statistical Area and the Winston-Salem Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population of the Greensboro-High Point Metropolitan Statistical Area was 776,566 in 2020. The Greensboro–Winston-Salem–High Point Combined Statistical Area, commonly called the Piedmont Triad, had a population of 1,695,306 in 2020.

Among Greensboro's many notable attractions, some of the most popular are the Greensboro Science Center, the International Civil Rights Museum, The Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts, the Weatherspoon Art Museum, the Greensboro Symphony, the Greensboro Ballet, and Triad Stage. Annual events in the city include the North Carolina Folk Festival, First Fridays in Downtown Greensboro, Fun Fourth of July Festival, North Carolina Comedy Festival and Winter Wonderlights. From 2015 to 2017 Greensboro hosted the National Folk Festival.
