During 2010, I have devoted Wednesday's as the day of the week to report on market conditions in various Atlanta metro cities and towns. Each week we put the spotlight on a particular city and during the year we have reviewed the market conditions in cities such as Acworth, Alpharetta, Atlanta, Austell, Ball Ground, Canton, Cartersville, Conyers, Covington, Cumming, Dallas, Dunwoody and Holly Springs.
Today the focus is on the city of HOSCHTON.
Welcome to Hoschton!
The city of Hoschton is a small community and a wonderful place to call home. It is located just off interstate 85 and straddles Jackson, Hall, Barrow, Gwinnett Counties in north Georgia, about 35 miles northeast of the Atlanta perimeter area. Jackson County is included in the 10 fastest growing counties in the country yet offers an abundance of open spaces and unspoiled views of the states Piedmont Region - just south of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The city mixes the advantage of small town living and the convenience of being less than 45 minutes from urban areas such as Athens, Gainesville and metro Atlanta for shopping, dining and entertainment.
