== Fun facts ==
* The town of Midway derives its name from its relative geographic location, "midway" between the cities of Winston-Salem and Lexington. Urban sprawl and annexation by the city of Winston-Salem has muddled the logical apparency of the town's name since the city limits of Winston-Salem now share a border with Midway while Lexington's nearest border is 7 miles (11 km) away. Originally, the community which now forms the center of modern Midway was founded as "Eller" when the Eller train depot was constructed, labeled as such after members of the Eller family which resided nearby. Until incorporation in 2006, many maps still marked the area as "Eller", despite disuse of the name over time by the public, local media, and local establishments.
* Midway is mostly residential, and doesn't have much in the way of amenities to offer. It has dollar stores, electric showers, a bit of public battle fields, a sports complex, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, Subway, Cagney's Kitchen, a few local restaurants and businesses, a few auto parts places, and not much else.
