The airport is about 20ish minutes south of Atlanta, in decent traffic, to go 30 minutes south I suspect you would be semi rural. Of course, I have no idea. Actually, McDonough and Peachtree City are in that range, if you want city(city, sorta) names.

What price range are you looking at? Homes in Henry Co start around $130 and up. What type of ammenities looking for? Lots of variables to consider. I would stay away from Clayton Co. if possible. Lots of run down neighborhoods there (some nice, newer neighborhoods going in, but!) Fayette Co has a lot of nice communities as well.

I hear good things about Fayetteville. We just put in our newest Thomasville store there and I have never been in that area. I'm sure I'll have to go there sooner or later but from what the recon reports read like it seems to be a fast growing and fairly inexpensive area to live in. It cant be that bad of an area if we put a thomasville store there. They dont go up just anywhere and their very picky about where they put one at.

Thanks guys,
Price range- depends on whether I decide I have to borrow money. Could swing about $100K cash. Amenities? AC, large yard, a garage or shop would be nice, as would shopping close by. I'll be looking for a run down house in a nice neighborhood, that's always worked out good for me in the past. Seems like there's a lot of housing in the $60-70K range, but the acreages are all mobiles. Anybody know Hampton? |

Here is a link for a local news paper for Newnan, and for Fayteetville/Peachtree City.

I used to live in Hampton (live south of Hampton in Griffin now). Hampton is nice except during race weekends. (traffic can be Hell if you don't know the backroads.) Like all towns there are bad areas, but they are easily avoided. |

a lot of the bad element of clayton is headed into henry at a growing pace. according to a henry county deputy i ran into recently, they are way too understaffed to handle the riff-raff coming from clayton. they don't even have cameras in all but 20 of their squad cars. they had to pull a lot of funding to try to hire more officers. you have to be very selective. you may want to look at the more rural areas of mcdonough. henry and forsyth are still two of the fastest growing counties in the country. what is rural now will be semi rural in a few years. what is semi rural now will be taken over by clayton in a few years.

And expensigve. Peachtree City is run by a bunch of NY/NJ carpetbaggers. That county has like 32 building inspectors. Many counties close by have 1 or 2. Someone (read residents) pays for the bloated civil servant offices. Butts county, Jasper county, Monroe county have lower land prices than closer in. Go Here for Ga. Counties |
