Winston-Salem
Twin Carolina city
Winston-Salem is a city in north-central North Carolina, formed from the merger of two adjacent towns: Winston, an industrial center, and Salem, a Moravian settlement.
It's known for tobacco manufacturing and Wake Forest University.
The hyphenated name reflects the dual heritage: I'm driving down to Winston-Salem for the weekend.
