Raleigh Community composition
Raleigh community comprises various groups in which people from various origins come and grow together as one. Raleigh is the place where I have been since I was born, and I have seen various changes as they happen and as the community builds up and grows. There have been various revolutions in terms of development in the community. It has also been impacted the way people from the different races have come in and interacted to build one united community. There has been competition in different life perspectives, which has helped the community create a strong business community. People have set different and some similar business in which they have been obliged to set quality in their services, leading to continued growth. As more businesses were set up, it also increased the number of employed people and less dependence. It also helped reduce poverty levels within the society as 70% of the population is engaged in their respective employment posts.

In every sector, either for development or service provision, there are centralized means in which it governs how they operate their activities. Centralization in the system has brought harmony compared to 20 years ago in which every person acted on his own, leading to increased conflicts within the people.
The population in the community a few years ago had a very low population in the community. The people within the community were partly before many people moved into the community and increased society's population. People attracted each other, which led to increased social amenities compared to 20 years ago when there were few amenities to serve the community. Gentrification in society has to be key in building up a revolved society. It has been brought by many rich people who relocated to Raleigh since it was a very rural place where they could find peace due to fewer activities. The rich's incoming has led to the increased development activities as they wanted to create a better environment than the one they found, which was disorganized with poor amenities and infrastructure. The community stratum is divided into different social classes depending on the income status of each person. The rich have to settle in a gated community while the middle class and the poor are outside the gated villages, and they work for the rich to earn a living.
