Wilson is a city and the county seat of Wilson County in the Coastal Plain region of the U.S. state of North Carolina. The 17th largest city in the state, Wilson had a population of 47,380 at the 2007 census.
Wilson is served by three airports: Wilson Industrial Airport, Rocky Mount-Wilson Airport (RWI) about 15 minutes from town, and Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) about 55 minutes from town. The city has an Amtrak station. The city of Wilson owns and operates a bus transit system. The following highways travel through Wilson: I-95, I-795, U.S. 301, U.S. Route 264, U.S. 117, N.C. 42, and N.C. 58. Ward Boulevard is a local 5-lane loop road that circles the original city limits (circa 1970). Some of the lanes are narrower than standard, because much of the loop originally was designed to be a four-lane road. To create five lanes, portions of the road were simply repainted.
