I live in Peachtree City and it is a great place to start a family and raise your kids. The school system is superb as McIntosh High School acceding in their academics and many sports. This golf community contains around 100 miles of golf cart paths around the entire city. Kids are able to attain their driving permit at age 15 and drive the golf carts by themselves (as they have to wait till they're 16 to take their driver's test). But, ages 15 and up all use golf carts. You can get to your home, favorite restaurant, go shopping, or go golfing! There are many lakes in Peachtree City as well. They are great for fishing, paddle boarding, and going for a swim! Very kind and friendly community in Peachtree City.
It's hilarious to me that many of the criticisms of Peachtree City are that it lacks diversity, is conservative or is predominantly Christian. These "criticisms" are rendered as if to imply that any of these things are inherently bad. Why is it bad if an area is majority white? Would the same criticisms be issued if the area were, say, majority Asian? Do people review Duluth and comment "There are a lot of Koreans living here... it lacks diversity." If you don't like white people or christians, then why on earth are you looking at Peachtree City? The Atlanta area is pretty diverse, so if you're looking for that, then there's no lack of alternatives. Pick a town where YOU feel comfortable instead of criticising people for living in an area that aligns with their values and expectations. Or just continue peddling the misguided narrative that anything white and Christian is bad and anything less than perfectly equal demographic representation is unacceptable.
We love it here. We've been here since 2019 and for us, it's been a great place for family activities and building up a community of friendships. The elementary schools have been wonderful for our kids, though if we choose, we have private options (Christian and secular) within driving distance, or homeschool co-op options that appear to be large and active. As for diversity, it is possible that the "white, conservative" reputation has been changing in recent years - our side of town (the North side) and school system is very diverse. I cannot speak to the experience of PTC residents with kids in High School or on the south side of PTC... the schools are apparently great academically, but do have a reputation of entitled wealthy kids, which have their own set of problems. (drugs, alcohol, etc., but with money & privilege behind it).
You can build life here at a middle class income, but you'll be surrounded by upper middle class, so you have to be okay with not "keeping up."
