Athens,
Georgia
Nestled in northern Georgia, Athens is nicknamed
the "Classic City" for its Greek Revival
architecture. It is also home to the University of Georgia
and is a youthful place, but the age 50+ demographic is growing as
baby boomers and retirees discover Athens' reasonable cost of
living, affordable housing, strong senior programs, good health
care, impressive cultural amenities, plentiful athletic events and
lively atmosphere.
Dahlonega,
Georgia
Dahlonega is tucked in the foothills of the
Appalachian Mountains and was the site of the nation's first gold rush,
twenty years before gold was discovered in California.
Today this appealing hamlet boasts a quaint town square, a
beautiful setting, abundant outdoor recreation, Southern
hospitality and a reasonable cost of living. The gold may be
gone from the hills, but people who retire here think they have
struck their own kind of gold.
