Wake County property tax contextApex's downtown is genuinely walkable from some parts of Ballentine — unusual for a Triangle 55+ community. Jordan Lake State Recreation Area (swimming, boating, trails) is approximately 15 minutes. The Epcon maintenance model means no exterior home responsibilities.

NC residents 65+ who meet income limits can file the AV-9 elderly exclusion with Wake County Tax Administration to reduce their taxable assessed value and lower annual property tax by $300–$800.
