If you are not familiar with King, we are a family-oriented and patriotic community just north of Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

We have an incredible Central Park with an amphitheater, a Veterans Memorial, walking trails, a fishing pond, and picnic shelters.  At Recreation Acres, we have ball fields, disc golf, a dog park, walking trails, a picnic shelter, and a state-of-the-art playground. We also have a vibrant Senior Center with innumerable activities offered. Locally, you can find a YMCA with an indoor aquatic facility, weight room, basketball courts, pickleball, workout classes, and other numerous activities.

We are a full-service city with great employees eager to provide service and information to those who request it. If you do not find the information you are looking for on this site, please call King City Hall at (336)983-8265 for a personal response to your inquiry.
