| What Atlanta is like for active adults |
Atlanta is Georgia's largest city and with over 5 million area residents, the 9th largest metro area in the U.S. For a variety of reasons tens of thousands of people will be moving to retirement communities. It has a relatively mild climate and lower cost of living, tremendous cultural and recreational opportunities, and many already live here or have relatives in the area. Atlanta is home to a number of colleges and universities including Emory and Georgia State. Atlanta was home to the 1996 Summer Olympics.
Active adults in retirement can either live in the many residential areas in town, or choose an active or over 55 community further out - the choices are limitless, along with the price options. According to the National Association of Realtors the median selling price of a home in the Atlanta Metro was $121,400 in the 2nd Quarter of 2009, off 23% vs. year ago. |
