Pittsboro is the county seat of Chatham County, about 35 miles southwest of Raleigh and 17 miles south of Chapel Hill. Established in 1785 and named for British statesman William Pitt the Younger, it had 4,537 residents at the 2020 census and is the site of the large Chatham Park development.
The Pittsboro Historic District is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and the Chatham County Courthouse stands in a traffic circle at the center of downtown.
Chatham Park is a 7,100-acre planned development announced in 2013 that is expected to include about 22,000 homes plus office and retail space, and it accounts for much of the area's new construction.
Jordan Lake is about 8 miles east and the Haw River runs nearby. US 15-501 connects Pittsboro to Chapel Hill and US 64 leads east toward Apex and Cary. Schools are part of Chatham County Schools, including Northwood and Seaforth High Schools; confirm the assignment for any address with the district.
