The summers are hot and the winters are mild. The median household income was $110,609 in 2011 and the poverty rate was less than 6%. It is estimated that over 70% of the residents were born outside of the area or outside of the country. SAS Institute and Fidelity Investments are the top employers in the area.

City Concerns

The Wake County Community Health Needs Assessment reported in 2016 that its residents are unaware of the mental health services available to them or they are finding navigating the system to be difficult. Many cannot afford private providers and are not finding enough sliding-scale programs. Many of the residents who participated in the survey stated that they often rely on emergency services “inappropriately” because they do not know where else to go. The same report identifies the 9th grade to be a large concern. Thirty-two percent report that they have feelings of hopelessness. Eighteen percent experienced suicidal thoughts. Out of all of the students in Wake County, 28% reported that they did not feel good about themselves compared to 25% in the entire state. Twenty-nine percent of both Wake County and the state of North Carolina students reported that they felt sad or hopeless for two weeks or more (one of the components for clinical depression). Nineteen percent of all students, county and state, report that they have been bullied or are being bullied. And 17% of both county and state students confessed that they seriously contemplated suicide within the past 12 months.

In the state of North Carolina, 35,827 divorces and annulments were granted in 2010. Diana Elliot, a family demographer at the Census Bureau that year, states that divorce rates are higher in the South because marriage rates are higher. In the same year, the U.S. rate was 3.6 percent.

There are approximately 50 psychiatrists in Cary, North Carolina. There are an estimated 459 licensed counselors, psychologists, and licensed mental health social workers and approximately 28 treatment centers.
