Abstract:
After the completion of several surveys on ocean subdivision projects, reviewers were astonished at the speed of development and consequent sale of residential property to individual owners. By and large, the subdivisions now mark the end of an era, within 25 years there will be little to no land to develop for subdivisions. Already, the most desirable ocean front properties are selling for $50 to $100 per foot, and even the less desirable beach property has doubled and tripled in price in the last six years.

Although property damage was extensive on larger and smaller beaches, the general condition of the beaches is looking good. Most beach activities are returning to normal, and fishing is again drawing thousands of visitors to the coast.

Perhaps not considered so often about the town first named Slocum’s Creek is its close proximity to Crystal Coast beaches. It was cited by the author as a factor leading many personnel stationed at Cherry Point to make Havelock home, post retirement.
