Exploring Athens and being a brief drive away from Atlanta is one of the best parts of living in Northeastern Georgia.
Athens is considered a highly favorable place to retire in Georgia with its exceptional healthcare, diverse dining, and fantastic shopping opportunities.
We love being part of the Athens community and supporting other local businesses there, too.
