== Fun facts ==
* Dobson is the home of the Shelton Vineyards, the largest winery in North Carolina.
* Surry is at present a powerfully Republican county. The last Democratic Presidential nominee to carry Surry County has been Jimmy Carter in 1976, and no Democrat since 1996 has reached forty percent of the county’s vote. Hillary Clinton received only twenty-three percent in 2016, a proportion smaller than Hubert Humphrey obtained in the three-way 1968 race. In earlier years Surry swung from Democratic-leaning during the Third Party System to Republican enough to be alongside Yadkin and Stokes the only North Carolina counties to stick with William Howard Taft during his disastrous 1912 campaign, back to Democratic enough to support Adlai Stevenson II in 1952.
* Pilot Mountain is believed to be the inspiration for the fictional town of Mount Pilot on The Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry RFD.
