3 Reviews & Comments About Dunn
I live in Dunn lol. Well really in Sampson County but I don't think Dunn is that bad of a place to live. Especially compared to places such as Fayetteville.
Exscue me but I was born in raise in DUNN n c. in it safe town I ever live in
Dunn has always been a place that has been "bottom of the barrell" for towns to live in. They have no leaders willing to do what it takes to modernize and bring the town into the 21st century. It's very sad. I can say something because I was raised in Dunn and still live in the area.
Sherry's Bakery has the best donuts!
