I know that starting a demanding new role at a 1,850-acre mega-site means you need a seamless, stress-free relocation. Here is a definitive housing guide specifically for Toyota team members. From finding the perfect commute in Greensboro and surrounding towns to understanding the unparalleled peace of mind that comes with building a brand-new Eastwood Home, we have you covered. Explore our breakdown below to find the perfect home base for your new career.

Part 1: The Context: Toyota Battery Manufacturing North Carolina (TBMNC)

To understand where to live, you must understand the magnitude of the site you are commuting to. The Liberty mega-site is not just another factory; it is a historic, transformative project that will define the automotive landscape of North America.

Investment and Scale

• Historic Scope: TBMNC is a staggering $13.9 billion investment by Toyota. It is the company’s first-ever battery manufacturing plant in North America.

• Massive Footprint: The facility spans a massive 1,850-acre mega-site, strategically chosen for its connectivity to major infrastructure.

The Jobs of the Future

The facility is creating over 5,100 high-tech jobs, heavily focused on the production of lithium-ion batteries that will power future generations of Toyota hybrid (HEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV), and battery electric vehicles (BEV).

The "Toyota Way" of Work-Life Balance

Toyota understands that their team members need support outside of work. The Liberty facility is planned to feature unprecedented on-site amenities, including:

• An on-site Child Care Center.

• A fully staffed Medical Clinic and Pharmacy.

• A state-of-the-art Fitness Center.

Part 2: The Commuter Guide: Where to Live Near Liberty, NC

While Liberty is a peaceful, rural area, many Toyota employees are opting to live in the surrounding suburban areas of the Piedmont Triad—such as Greensboro, High Point, and McLeansville.

This region offers the perfect blend of suburban comfort, modern amenities, and highly manageable commutes to the TBMNC site via major corridors like Hwy 421, I-85, and I-40.

We have partnered with Eastwood Homes, a premier builder known for their quality, value, and commitment to the Triad region. Here is a breakdown of top Eastwood communities that are perfect for Toyota commuters.
