ABOUT THE COMMUNITY
• Clyde, NC a small town of 1,300+, is located just west of Asheville and has the distinction of being "away from it all" but without the isolation usually associated with mountain living.
• Long associated with neighboring Canton, Clyde is also home to Haywood Community College and the Haywood Regional Medical Center. Recently two industrial parks have been developed just north of the Canton/Clyde.
• Clyde is surrounded by mountains and valleys which afford numerous outdoor recreational opportunities to the visitors and residents. Clyde is also the home of the Shook Museum, housed in one of the oldest buildings still standing in Haywood County. It was built around 1795 by Jacob Shook for his son Peter.
