Holly Ridge
Holly Ridge
Holly Ridge was incorporated in 1941 when 28 people lived in town. Two years later Camp Davis, an anti-aircraft, artillery training base, came to town and the population soared to 110,000. Today, with 1,180 full-time residents Holly Ridge is once again on the move. New neighborhoods of single-family homes and condominium communities seem to appear every day. Located halfway between the Port City of Wilmington and Jacksonville, home to Camp LeJeune and the Marine Corps Air Station New River, Holly Ridge is both convenient and close to the beach and is the official gateway to Topsail Island.
