This is a medium-sized community that truly provides the best of both worlds. It is small enough to have a true sense of community, but large enough to offer a wide variety of activities. The city is located near Atlanta, which provides additional venues for cultural activities, shopping, dining, and access to an international airport. The area is also in an excellent geographical setting: the city is about a 4-hour drive to the coast and a 2-hour drive to the Blue Ridge Mountains. The climate is ideal for year-round outdoor activities.

The area’s public schools are annually ranked among the best in the state and the private schools are regionally ranked.
