What is an Unincorporated Community?

An unincorporated community is a place where people live close together, but it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town does. This means that services like police, fire, and roads are usually managed by the county government instead of a separate town hall.

Geography and Location

Sophia is in the central part of Randolph County. This county is known for its rolling hills and a mix of forests and farmlands. Being near major highways like I-73, I-74, and US 220 means Sophia has good connections to larger cities and towns in North Carolina.
