Discovering Roble
Roble is located about 174 feet (or 53 meters) above the level of the sea. This measurement, called elevation, tells us how high a place is compared to the ocean.
How Roble Began
Roble got its start a long time ago because of a railroad line. It was founded along the tracks that connected it to another place called Durham. Railroads were very important in the past for moving people and goods, and many communities grew up around them.
