Formed in 1771, it also contained portions of modern Durham and Franklin counties. Its county seat is Raleigh.
Wake County is largely urban/suburban. A generation ago, the county was largely agrarian with the State Government and North Carolina State University anchoring the city of Raleigh. Now, the sprawl around Raleigh and its bedroom communities of Garner, Wake Forest and Cary has spilled over into adjoining counties.
