Rolesville is a fast-growing town in northeastern Wake County, about 15 miles from downtown Raleigh. Its population grew from 3,786 at the 2010 census to 9,475 in 2020. Chartered in 1837, Rolesville is the second-oldest town in Wake County, and today it combines a small historic core with many newer neighborhoods and new construction homes.
The town is named for William H. Roles, who bought land in the area in the early 1800s. Rolesville was chartered under his leadership in 1837 and grew as a stagecoach stop. The town also lends its name to the Rolesville Pluton, a large body of granite-type rock whose outcrops can be seen in and around town.
Town parks include Main Street Park, Redford Place Park and Mill Bridge Nature Park, along with the Rolesville Community Center.
Rolesville sits between Wake Forest and Knightdale, with US 401 connecting it to Raleigh. Public schools are part of the Wake County Public School System, including Rolesville High School; confirm the assignment for any address with the district.
