Snow Hill…A Nice Place to Live The beautiful town is home to 1,614 residents. It is a growing community, situated overlooking the Contentnea Creek. The town boasts historic neighborhoods, fine recreational facilities, nice homes and prosperous businesses. A community in central Greene County, the town of Snow Hill was chartered in 1828. Snow Hill has a rich past from its settling families that have been here for generations to the rumor of the town almost becoming the capital of North Carolina. One thing that is true is that Snow Hill was originally a major trading depot on Contentnea Creek. At the time, Contentnea Creek was a main Wilson to New Bern trading artery. Contentnea Creek connects with the Neuse River between New Bern and Kinston, the largest river in our state.
