Explore Raleigh building permits, RPD crime data and planned-development zoning in Auburn, in southeast Raleigh along Poole Road.
Search this neighborhoodAuburn is the far southeast corner of the city along Poole Road, mainly newer subdivisions such as Battle Ridge, Chastain, Tealbrook and Brandywood. Planned-development districts cover nearly half of it, and retaining walls make up most of the active permits.
Its outline breaks into several pieces because the city limits are patchy here. GoRaleigh route 18L (Barwell-New Hope) serves the area. The boundary is built from census block groups, so it follows streets and creeks but is not an association or historic-district line.
CivicScout counts Raleigh Police reported offenses that carry a location, traffic crashes and open 311 requests inside the Auburn boundary for any searched address. RPD withholds the location of most sexual offenses and every child-abuse report, so located counts understate violent crime. Police place incidents on the block’s street, so offenses within about 30 meters of the outline are counted, and an offense on a street shared by two neighborhoods counts toward both. Raleigh publishes no code violations feed, so this page does not cover one.
