Sampson County, North Carolina
Sampson County is a large, rural coastal-plain county in southeastern North Carolina anchored by Clinton, its seat and largest town, with Newton Grove and Roseboro nearby. Agriculture, particularly hog and poultry production, drives the economy more than almost anywhere else in the state, and the dense concentration of animal-feeding operations makes CAFO setback and buffer rules a key factor in valuing or developing land near existing farms.
