Kentland Ridge Spans Two Counties
Kentland Ridge sits on the Forsyth/Guilford line in Kernersville, and homes on the same street can fall in different counties — which changes the tax bill and the schools. This page covers the Forsyth County side, served by Kernersville Elementary, Kernersville Middle and East Forsyth High.
Homes on the Guilford County side of Kentland Ridge are served by Colfax Elementary and the Northwest Guilford schools instead.
Both sides share a Kernersville mailing address and the 27284 zip code, so the address alone will not tell you which county a home is in. Confirm the county and school assignment for the exact address before making an offer.
