Buena Vista

"Don't be surprised by Winston-Salem's Southern (non-Spanish) pronunciation of this part of town. Situated just north of "Five Points" — the intersection of Miller Street, First Street, Stratford Road, South Stratford Road and Country Club Road — Buena Vista is home to many second and third generation families. Home purchases often take place before a sign could ever be put in the yard. Neatly manicured yards show off seasonal plantings including tulips in spring, crape myrtle in summer, and chrysanthemums in the fall, followed by winter with evergreen wreaths and Moravian stars." --- Visit Winston-Salem.com

"This is a very settled, well-established neighborhood. There are many people who’ve been here a while, and the new people who move into the area really want to be part of the neighborhood." --- Prudential Carolinas Realty’s Lloyd Dillon

"Stratford Road is a main thoroughfare in the Buena Vista area" ... "much of the magic of that earlier time remains in the form of stately homes, tree-lined sidewalks, and a strong sense of community among the residents." --- Aug 14, 2005 issue of HomePlace
