Where is the best place to stay in Athens?

Is athens ga a good place to live?

  • transferring to a school in athens and i heard it was a safe place to live. i want to stay in a semi quiet not really crowded place, any nice apartments? ive been looking some up online but none of the reviews are good. any suggestions.. (previous or current athens residents help to please)

  • Answer:

    My daughter goes to UGA and loves it up there. She and her friends plan to start apartment-hunting in the spring. From what we see, the apartments close to campus are for the college crowd. (In other words, they may not be as nice or as quiet as apartments geared to non-students. Students are not necesarily picky!) I think you should go up to visit, and drive around. You'll find some parts of town pretty nice. Other areas, even close to my daughter's current dorm, look sort of sketchy. I noticed large pockets of poverty when I initially visited Athens. If you plan to have a car and don't mind driving to campus every day, you'll have more options than choosing someplace walking or biking distance.

I don't personally live in Athens, but I live pretty close to Atlanta, so I've been there a lot. I don't know about apartments or anything, but it is pretty safe, but living in any major city, you're always going to have worry about this and that at times. It is pretty crowed though, because you do have UGA. But that's mainy on the highway and shopping centers close to campus, etc. All the subdivisions and everything are pretty spacious and quiet. Ohhh, and the Varsity? AMAZING. You've got to go there. (:

Laer.

Maybe. I suggest you try the website listed below (its easy to find more, just google on "Georgia" forums or "Georgia message board") and register an account. Try asking a few questions, like schools/jobs/ nightlife over a week of time or so. Don't ask just ONE question. And don't ask stuff that you could easily google. I use City-Data very often.
