Residential development in Brunswick County is experiencing explosive growth, with the county planning department seeing a 572% increase in residential unit approvals among major subdivisions and planned developments between fiscal years 2020 and 2021, not including recently approved 2,132 acres for higher density zoning south of Highway 17 in Calabash. The Stone Farm development project between Sunset Beach and Calabash, anticipated for completion in phases over the next 7 to 10 years, involves 1,009 acres that could contain nearly 1,800 homes, 363 townhomes and about 45 acres of commercial development and is located of Old Georgetown Road (Highway 179) approximately two miles east of this site.

Brunswick County ranked as the fastest-growing county in NC from 2021-2022, with a growth rate of 5.7%, and is the fastest-growing from 2020 with a population increase of 12%. It was the only county in NC to rank in the top 10 in percentage growth in the US, ranking seventh. This does not account for the high net worth second homeowners and visitors to the South Brunswick Islands. Brunswick’s tourism figures for 2020 and 2021 were so strong that they eclipsed visitor spending in New Hanover (Wilmington), typically the highest in the tri-county region, according to an annual Visit North Carolina report that draws from a variety of data to calculate the money spent on food, lodging, recreation, retail and transportation in each of the state’s counties.

In the 2023 Wilmington Business Journal Book on Business, the Town of Calabash ranks #4 in the three-county Wilmington Region of Wealthiest Zip Codes, with adjacent Sunset Beach #6 and Ocean Isle Beach #1.
