Health Considerations in North Carolina
The Research Triangle region of North Carolina — Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill — is notorious for extreme spring pollen seasons, with tree pollen counts among the highest in the country from late February through April, driving heavy urgent care demand for allergy symptoms, sinus infections, and asthma flares. The state's coastal communities also face hurricane risk, and summer heat and humidity in the Piedmont and coastal plain create conditions for heat-related illness from June through September.
