    I had family in Seaboard. I didn't know that Seaboard was this depressing, smh. Still, I luv NC.

    Their biggest employer is West Fraser right outside of town limits. I think a lot of their employees commute in from the surrounding area including Southern VA. If you saw log trucks they were headed there.

      The town center needs a little love that’s for sure.

      It was around 8:00 in the morning, so that explains some of it. But I did not see much activity around the John Deer company either.
      I did see a lot of tractors working in the fields on the way in.

    Called Decaying America. This town was also once upon a time. I Doubt if it will rebound. It's just dying a slow Death. Population probably on the Decline along with the low income

    Another small railroad town, I fear loosing a battle to its existence. A real shame that the history of our country, and those that made this country, are disappearing.

    I don't live in Seaboard, but, I'm just a hop, skip and jump from there. l have doubts the town will ever boom again, there are no jobs, nothing in the area to pull people in.

      Every town definitely needs an anchor business 👍

    Northeastern NC is just as poor as the Mississippi Delta.
