Threat Summary
Residents in the 27894 area face a critical environmental hazard score of 10.0. The Ralph L. Fike High School site is a nearby active Superfund location. While the EPA lists the contaminants as unspecified hazardous substances, their presence means the local ground or water could be unsafe. For daily life, this means you must be cautious about touching soil or drinking water from private wells. There are three toxic sites located within five miles of your home.
