re: Things to do in Durham, NC?

Duke Univ (host), UNC and NC State are all within 15-20 miles of each other and Chapel Hill is very close, about 15 min drive. Durham has lots of trendy college bars, restaurants and the Durham Bulls baseball park is downtown. There's more to do in Raleigh, but it's a great place to live, but it's not a tourist area. Triangle traffic is pretty bad especially on the I-40 inner loop.
