#1 Best Places to Live in Augusta Area
Current Resident: Evans is so ideal! I don’t think we could afford such a lovely home anywhere else. We live in a safe, quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors and easy access to parks and splash pads, the library, and an amphitheater. We are 15 minutes from the lake, which is big and beautiful! You are within 20 minutes of hundreds of restaurants and stores and the Augusta mall, which is surprisingly nice. Evans is SAFE! We are also two or three hours from Atlanta, Hilton Head, Charleston, Savannah, Blue Ridge (mountains), not far from Myrtle Beach, and six hours from Orlando. Atlanta is a huge airport so flights are more affordable. Downsides: (like anywhere in the south) heat, humidity, big bugs, hurricane season (we mostly just get rain, but I hear the power has gone out for weeks in the past). So there’s that. As a young mom trying to entertain young children. I give it a B+. I think I could stay here forever if it had a decent fall and wasn’t 100 degrees until November. Read 163 Reviews
