What Woodstock is like for active adults
Woodstock, a town of 14,000, is conveniently located in the northern suburbs of Atlanta, Ga.  It is 35 minutes to downtown, 1 hour to the mountains.  With the international airport only 45 minutes away, the world is at your doorstep.  Atlanta's mild temperatures make it a desirable place to live.

There are active adult communities in Woodstock (see link at top right). Zillow says that the median price of a home in late 2009 was about $158,000, while City-Data says prices are just a bit higher than that.
