    Answered Questions

    Where are affordable places to live in the USA?

    Liv, since you are in Florida consider coming a bit North to Georgia. There are some areas within an hour of Atlanta that still have excellent affordability, great schools, safety, good weather and great people! We are in Milton/Alpharetta which are expensive, but areas south of the City such as Fayetteville and Newnan, plus northern areas including Kennesaw, Dawsonville, and parts of Cumming or Canton have great affordability.
