Why Buyers Are Moving to Clemmons NC
Clemmons is the most popular suburb of Winston-Salem for a reason. It gives buyers a quiet, residential feel without actually being far from anything. I-40 cuts right through the village, and most daily errands, medical centers, and major employers are a short drive away. How short depends on your street and the clock, so test-drive your commute at the hour you would actually make it.

What makes Clemmons work for buyers
It's a suburb that actually functions — Forsyth County schools (check the assignment by address), parks that people use, highway access that isn't miserable, and neighborhoods that have real character.
Clemmons Neighborhoods Buyers Ask About Most
Each community has its own mix of home style, amenities, and price range. Here's what you need to know before you start comparing listings.
Waterford
Large, well-known subdivision developed over multiple phases. Sidewalks, classic curb appeal, and a quick drive to Village Point shopping and schools.
Clemmons West
One of the village's most established neighborhoods near Tanglewood Park. Larger lots, mature landscaping, pool, and traditional homes from various decades.
Salem Glen
Clemmons' premier golf community. Nicklaus Design course, custom homes, luxury properties, and townhomes all wrapped around the club and its amenities.
Waterford Glen
A smaller, quieter pocket with well-kept homes and mature landscaping. Good fit for buyers who like the Waterford area but want a smaller community feel.
Tanglewood Park
If there's one thing that separates Clemmons from every other Winston-Salem suburb, it's Tanglewood. Most buyers don't fully appreciate how good this park is until they're already living here.
Tanglewood Park
Located along the Yadkin River, Tanglewood is a full-scale county park that gives Clemmons residents access to things most suburbs could never pull off.
- Two championship golf courses
- Walking, biking, and equestrian trails
- Aquatic center, lazy river, and seasonal pool
- Playgrounds, picnic shelters, and open green space
- Horse stables and trail rides
- Festival of Lights — a Triad tradition every winter
Village Point Lake & Greenway
Village Point is one of Clemmons' biggest day-to-day recreation spots. The greenway wraps around the lake with nearly three-quarters of a mile of paved path, a fishing pier, and active plans for expanding trail connections.
It's the kind of spot that gets genuinely used — walkers, runners, families, people fishing off the pier on a weekday afternoon. The lake is surrounded by restaurants and shops, so it functions as a real gathering point for the village.
- Paved walking and running trail around the lake
- Fishing pier overlooking Village Point Lake
- Restaurants and shops within walking distance
- Expansion plans for additional greenway connections
