Current Resident: My favorite trait about living in Gwinnett County is its diversity. The numerous converging cultures within the region make finding a delectable meal an adventure in itself. The varying people in the area help create a secure and comforting atmosphere that never leaves me feeling out of place. Although, Gwinnett is best known for its prestigious education. Many move to Gwinnett County in search of better schooling for their children. This great migration of families has led to overpopulation in the classrooms preventing some individuals from seeking particularized assistance. While it is honorable that Gwinnett is getting recognized for their scholastic prowess, I would like to see more schools being built to sustain the number of new students moving in....

Current Resident: Moving to Dekalb county in 2005 was one of the best decisions I ever made. Just around every corner, there is a unique jewelry store, clothing boutique, specialty restaurants, museums, and or parks. I enjoy numerous outdoor festivals. Imagine you do not have to drive eight hours away to Louisiana to attend a Mardi Gras Parade. Just head to downtown Decatur in March with a heart full of joy and mouth full of cheer. Every year there are Art, Jazz, BBQ, Blues & Bluegrass Festivals to Tree Lighting, and everything in between. DeKalb County is very progressive and in a constant state of revitalization. There is always an eat, work, and live community construction projects, new housing areas, or various beautification projects in progress. DeKalb County is known for having some of the best public schools and universities in the state. Due to the strong sense of community and togetherness, the neighborhoods are safe and have lower crime rates than nearby counties. DeKalb County is the best!... Read 94 reviews

Current Resident: I have been in Muscogee County most of my life and it has honestly been one of the best experiences I have had. It may not be well known, but the faculty and staff always try to make sure you are taken care of academically. Also, I have met some of my best friends here which makes it that more enjoyable....

Current Resident: I've lived in Douglas County for 17 years now and have enjoyed my peaceful time in this area's safe, relatively secluded suburbs. I enjoy the quiet night and the respectful tight-knit community lifestyle it offers. There is a plethora of welcoming forestry & almost every road is lined with greenery that calls you to its state parks and varying trails; while there is plenty of hiking & wildlife exploration opportunity, I would like to see more walkable community spaces & areas for the youth of the County to relax out of the woods as well as get together outdoors to connect in spaces that aren't only targeted towards family gatherings. The merchandise, shopping options, and restaurant availability could be less large corporation based and as a local, I would like to see more dedicated spaces for small businesses like the ones in Downtown Douglasville. With that being said, I do largely appreciate the weekly Farmers Market and opportunities offered here to support current entrepreneurs.... Read 93 reviews

Current Resident: Henry county is an amazing place with fun places to visit and explore. Henry county is an mix of rural and urban. There are amazing houses in the area with great living area. With Henry county only being 30 miles away from Atlanta, there are many places to visit and shop. Henry county also has the Atlanta Motor Speedway for you to visit and explore. I've lived in henry county almost my whole life, attending elementary, middle, and high school here. The school system is great and they are super helpful and understanding. Henry County has grown a lot in the recent years and every one supports one another. Henry County is a very quiet environment to live in based on my own experience. The police system is decent with most cops being helpful and supportive but there are some that are racist and arrogant. With the community being involved in activities for kids and adults it's a fun place for everyone to enjoy. Overall Henry county is an amazing place to live and grow in with your family....

Current Resident: I love living here. It is a small town atmosphere to raise my kids in and still be able to have everything that we need. We are close enough to the major highways that we can jump on one of them and be there in a matter of no time. Even though the city has grown quite a bit since I have lived here, it still maintains that small south Georgia town attitude where you help your neighbor when you can and expect nothing in return....

Current Resident: I love living in Conyers! The people are what really make this a great place to raise a family. Our community offers a lot of access to things like Hartsfield International Airport, downtown Atlanta, 22 miles of walking and biking trails through beautiful scenery, restaurants, shopping, churches, and activities. There is something for everyone. Whether you are looking for a farm, a home in a pool and tennis subdivision, or living on property - it is here! The International Horse Park is a great feature in town and was built for the 1996 Olympics.... Read 19 reviews

Current Resident: I live in the south part of Houston County. Everyone's basic needs: food, clothing, shelter, etc. are easily accessible. Farthest drive in the town is about 20 minutes. Although Houston County isn't like the city, during the work rush hours traffic is very bad. Traffic is the one thing I wish was better, but there are back roads as well to avoid it. I would like to say my neighborhood is very safe. Everyone pitches in to keep it looking nice and it's safe with the cameras at the front entrance and around the light posts. Police are always around schools to either direct traffic or to make sure no harm is going into the schools.... Read 9 reviews

Current Resident: Lowndes county is great if your looking for a place like this. Entertainment is lacking but it has everything you need just not much more. Houses and rent are very affordable compared to most places. Job opportunities are okay but pay is not great. This is a very laid back area. People are not in a rush and are generally very polite. Schools here are excellent. Weather is pretty good as well. Yes the summers are hit but it's only real bad for about 3-4 months. Winters are nice and comfortable and I'd say have about 6-8 months a year that are pleasant October to about April. Excellent place if you are interested in slower paced lifestyle. If not you won't be happy here.... Read 8 reviews

Current Resident: I enjoy living there and I have been around good people. It just like like the old people use to say the way you make your bed is the way your bed; you will have to lay in it so that is best for you to try to make your bed the way you would like to lay in it. Bibb County is a beautiful county to me. I was born and raise in South Carolina. I look at Bibb County as a beautiful place because that is the way I see it. I love where I stay at because the neighborhood remind me of the place where I live when I have lived in South Carolina. All together Bibb County is a home away from home. Bibb County is a place of beautiful flowers especially when they have the Cherry Blossom. The Cherry Blossom is so beautiful with all the colors pink. They have a lot of activity for the people....
