Forsyth County Real Estate

Forsyth County defines what it means to be a thriving destination for visitors and homebuyers alike. In 2008, Forsyth County was placed in the top ten fastest growing counties in America attributed to its convenient location between Atlanta and the stunning North Georgia Mountains and its tax rates which are among the lowest in the metro area. As a result, Forsyth County has continuously welcomed new residents to new subdivision developments, many with incredible amenities such as world-class golf courses and easy access to the stunning 37,000-acre Lake Lanier. Along with the boom in population, new businesses are attracted to the area to serve residents needs. The recent addition of the Avenue Forsyth world-class shopping center in Cumming only serves to highlight the county’s continued growth and prosperity.

Natural beauty and heritage are important aspects of daily life in Forsyth County. Notable historical attractions include Poole’s Mill Covered Bridge, one of the few in the country and registered as a National Historic site, and several Indian archeological sites. Along with Lake Lanier, Forsyth County boasts the Sawnee Mountain Preserve’s visitor center, Miracle League Field at Coal Mountain Park, and the opening of the first of three phases for the Big Creek Greenways which when finished will have a 15 mile trail to compliment the over 1,700 acres of parks.

But as the population of Forsyth County has grown, numerous county organizations have eased the growth’s impact on the quality of life here. The future of Forsyth County is just as important as its present, and residents here realize that careful planning means continued success. Each community in Forsyth County has its own distinctive atmosphere, but each shares a common emphasis for Southern Hospitality, appreciation for the beauty of the Georgia countryside and the success of their families. Green spaces remain a top priority in Forsyth County, as a recent initiative to devote $100 million towards parks and recreation passed in 2008.

As the county’s largest employer, the Forsyth County School System, students are welcomed to a learning environment that is boosted by technologically-advanced classrooms and a curriculum that emphasizes the use of new technology and advanced teaching practices. As the county continues to grow, so does the number of schools being added to the system. Currently, there are five schools set to open this year, including an additional high school and ten more schools are expected to open by 2013. As a whole, Forsyth schools are ranked time and again among the top five in the entire state for high testing scores.

Forsyth County’s economic stability is on solid ground with the relocation of 15 international companies’ headquarters to the county that join 15 others. Forsyth County is continually ranked among the nation’s top places to “Get Ahead” by Forbes Magazine and for job growth by CNN/Money.com. Affluent but down-to-Earth, residents of Forsyth County are enjoying the success of their home county and families.
