I visited Griffin, Georgia the end of May 2023. I like the rural area. I looked at the 55-plus community called Sun City Peachtree. I looked at their model homes and liked two of the models. This community has so many activities and so much to do. It's resort-style living. I will return within a few months to explore more and decide if I want to buy.
We just brought a house there too.Sun city is really nice.
Nice video, good music. I’m considering purchasing a home in Griffin so this is helpful
Thanks for your video, very informative and transparent. I learned a lot about Griffin, Ga. I’ll be watching your RUclips channel from now on
Thanks for watching and commenting 🙏💪. That really means a bunch!
Don't move there I lived there, and it is so out of date. And Georgia power is not a part of griffin so you will have to turn your light on with them. The city does not allow you to make payment arrangements on your light bill if you don't pay the balance in full, they will cut your lights off. The main grocery store is Kroger's, Food Depot, Walmart oh and Aldi there is no Target unless you drive to Fayetteville or McDonough. I think there is only one CVS also. There is one hospital it's ok, I guess. And it's about the same rent as Jonesboro now. If you move there you will be driving out a lot just to eat or shop. But if you don't mind a dead city by all means. Oh, and the back roads at night are creepy as hell no lights if you're coming from McDonough ext. 216. But if your taking Tara into griffin at night you're ok up until you pass the Atlanta Motor Speedway no lights until you get to griffin. From Jonesboro it a 30min drive. Oh yeah soon as you come into griffin from Tara slow down on Experiment St it's 30mph and police will be waiting to hand you a ticket. They did just build a Chipotle lol and one thing I noticed was there's a lot of couches on the front porches of houses and when you drive by locals just stare no waves just stare. The schools are not great it's really nothing there.
Thanks for your comments
You are so right Griffin is a sucky ass town
I have a business here and I absolutely LOVE this town! It’s a great place for business, affordable and the food is delicious! It’s a shame you didn’t see more of the downtown area though! Thanks for putting Griffin out there. It’s was needed!
💯💯Born n raised East Side Circus Street pursuing my 18 year career welding in Savannah since 2018. As an 86 Baby whose G MA is Cherokee I approve of this platform. Thanks Bro🤝🏾✊🏾
Thank you. I'm relocating to Griffin to teach. I'm going through a staffing company so I haven't decided to buy, un fact, I've never been to the city itself. I was planning on renting
. This was a great introduction to give a feel for the place and to see it through someone's instead of the pictures only that I've seen
My paternal grandma was from griffin,ga . I just moved to the atl area andi can't wait to visit griffin.
Thanks for doing this video
Well done! I was born in Griffin and now live in "The Bottom" (i.e., southern FL). I've been away from Griffin for so long that I don't know if I could readjust to life there, so if I ever were to relocate it probably would be to a locale in Central Florida or or to a coastal Georgia city such as Brunswick or Savannah. Ever forward!
Can you do ellenwood GA ? And the different parts that is covered in 4 county & Love your content
Lived 6 Months in Griffin last year till July It was A Beautiful Experience. And I'm thinking of going back.
We really appreciate this! We’re moving next month and are considering Griffin! Thank you for showing us around! -Ben and Ang 🖤
I live in griffin it’s really a nice city to be
I live here too! It’s awesome! Been here only 6 mons and renovated my all brick ranch. Love it here the people are friendly and quaint. Don’t sleep on Griffin. If you move here message me back…we can meet in the square for lunch lol!
Fiancé and I are considering moving here. Thanks for a great informative video.
We moved from Aurora CO to FL. We now live in Brooksville FL and it’s horrid. The entitlement in FL… I just can’t.
Also lol I’m 4’11 and am shocked at how fast you are moving down these streets! That paste would be a jog for me. 🚶🏾♂️
So true about brooksville fla.
Who song is this.I love the music bro and of Course this amazing video
BORN & RAISED…. Still Here ✊🏾💯
#IStayToMyselfAndDoMyOWNThing
That’s wat we do stay to ourselves . 💯💯
@@annperry6267 💯💯💯
Moved there in 2015. I like the fact that I was closer to Atlanta. But as time went on the crime got worse. Even when I thought I was moving into a better neighborhood, I would hear gunshots every few weeks. One day I literally came home to my apartment and saw a teenager laying out on the ground from being shot. That was queue to go. But other than that it's ok small town living. Nice barber shops and hair salons, bakeries, price of rent went up a lot as well. I did love wyomia tyus Park
Informative video. I have never really considered Spalding County as part of metro Atlanta. I know the neighboring county which is Henry County is part of metro Atlanta. But, again, this was an informative video.
Visiting family in Griffin in a couple of weeks. Wanted to see what's out there. Looks like it'll be a respite from the sensory overload I experience here in NY.
Oh it Most certainly is… being from The Bronx it’s very different but also if you have family who’s From there.. they typically just welcome you in and make you feel like home!! It’s just Boring🤷🏽♀️
Had to move once my kids were school aged though 🥴
Thank you
Nice Music!
What about the area around Poplar Avenue? Overall would you say McDonough is a better choice in regard to safety, things to do and modernization ? Great video and tfs
Great video and did you do a video about the Marietta Georgia area yet? If so can you leave the link for it here.
Haven’t done Marietta yet… it’s on the way.
@@raymondrileyjr thanks much appreciated for that
I live in griffin Georgia I love it
Live here and gang violence taking its toll.
Amen to that. Crime rate is rising like crazy.
That’s all over the world not just Griffin
True but this video is about Griffin. Gang violence is horrible here!!!!!!!
I’m in the county…haven’t seen gang life. Hope I never do.
Yep. And don't send your kid to Griffin high
I actually live in Griffin Georgia and I’ve been at this spot before many times😅
Hello my Brother. Thanks for showing us Down Town Griffin.
Can you show the other Shopping places that are apart of the convinces residents of Griffin enjoy. Box Stores like: Walmart, Krogers, Ross, BIG LOTS, Marshalls, Longhorn Steak House.
Also. Can you Show your Viewers these places: Lowes, Home Depot, Chick-fil-A, Starbucks, Walgreens ect. Which are also in Griffin?
Maybe go to "North Griffin Square"? And to the College Campus that is a extension of Georgia University. As well as the Hotels in Griffin and more?
Thanks So Much For This.
My Wife and I live in another state and want to. know more about this "Up and Coming City and its surrounding Communities".
We are subscribers to your Channel. Again Thank You.
Griffin is a sleepy upcoming little town.
@@fernandothomas432 there really is nothing more in Griffin than was shown. And things are hard to find here. Due to you have people from Butts, Lamar, Pike Counties, ALL coming to Griffin especially Walmart to do their shopping.
Yes Those are nice areas and stores Fernando . It’s good to show so ppl can know we do have places like that here
Griffin sucks I hate this damn town
I moved to Griffin in April 2022 I purchased my home here I love Griffin. It is definitely…..Very different than what I’m use to be it I was rise Southern California. I wanted a place where could relax, have some land become a foster parent and just chill rest of my life.I Love my home, the areas around are very sketchy I am very seldom out after dark. So if troubles finds me I’m licensed to carry and no fear of exercising my right 👀 👀👀
I was a foster child in Griffin for many years. Its difficult being a foster kid, being moved from home to home every few months, always having to readjust to new people who mostly never try to get to know you or care for you in any intimate way. I deeply appreciate all of the foster parents who took me in and cared for me the best that they knew how. I reached out to the one that I could remember the name of years later but they were not willing to be in contact with me. I wanted to thank them for offering me a home when I needed one. I really appreciate you doing what you can for kids who are surviving abuse and extreme neglect.
I moved there during the pandemic. It’s not a bad place at all
Very rural
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I grew up in Griffin over two decades ago. The city was clean and taken care of. I just recently visited and what I saw was heartbreaking. It’s turned into a ghetto mess. All the trash from Atlanta has migrated south and destroyed a nice, small, historic town. Sadly, I’ll never go back.
Grew up here and love it! Sadly there are some areas I steer clear of now, but overall I've always felt safe here. The shadiest robbers around here are our Commissioners and school board sticking it to us with property taxes and our schools continue to decline.
It sucks here ain't crap here
What are the placks on the geound for?
My fiance lives here the video was most helpful im deciding on whether I want to move there or to locust Grove
Locust grove
Griffin is a very safe place IMO. The main problem is poverty and drugs. But even with that..it's pretty safe believe it or not...I give Griffin props for this. Despite all the issues..most Griffin people are pretty decent. Now we have crazy stories now and then like a preacher locking up people in his basement..but I promise that is something I would have never thought would happen because most of the people are decent. So that goes to show you the craziest people in griffin are the ones that have some money lol. Joking.
How do I find whats considered the outskirts of Griffin?
Hi I am thinking coming to griffin for an event next year in 2023 for a few days how safe would you say it would be for a single white to women to be there and how is the transportation without a car any advice would be helpful thank you .
It’s safe to come
U can Uber or Lyft. But honestly it's hard getting one at night.
Interested..
How easy or hard is it to get a job as a truck driver in Griffin?are there companies that hire or would one have to get hired outside Griffin
I honestly have no idea. I would tell you to Google that and see what you come up with.
They honestly don’t have any like that here. I’m born and raised and still here and haven’t seen any. My pops been driving sense I was 6. I’m 29 now and he always had to apply in Atlanta. The closest you may find to griffin is McDonough ga then Atlanta which is 30-45 min away from griffin
It’s wild too many shooting coming from the youngins and it’s boring here take it from me I’m born and raised here.
Thankyou
Lol a know ALOT of truck driver from Griffin.
Is the apartment of Appleton Apartments at 1110 poplar a good place for family? Thanks
I have no idea. You’ll need to lean heavily on the reviews left by previous residents and definitely visit the community first and feel around. Talking to the resident would be helpful to if you can catch some outside.
Not sure if you ever moved but if you have teens I wouldn't move there as they would have bad Influences. I wish most places were more affordable like that tho
Doc Holliday is from there
I'm here because of Netflix...if you know you know
Griffin in decline since mills closed years ago.just take a ride around and see alot of run down areas that you probably wouldn't want kids around.
Yep as stated in the video the inner city limits sections can get sketchy. However the entire city of Griffin isn’t that way at all.
I am from Providence RI and we moved here 15 yrs ago . We like Griffin it’s not all run down . We were not here when the mills were but there are still nice and beautiful things here . Because I am high risk I have to travel to another City to go to the docs ( Stockbridge Ga) . Our kids are in private Sch and doing great .
Griffin is nice. All towns have sketchy areas. The people are quaint and the city is changing. It’s best to get in before all of the changes happen. I’m watching
It like a hawk!
@@Thegoodlife4me changes ? do you live there ?? Thinking about giving Griffin a chance
@@TD-dq5ux Yes I do. Land is being gobbled up. Builders are building like mad. I ride around and look because I’m new here,7 mons, and I love to scope out real estate opportunities. Real estate is my hobby. They’re building an aquatic center and many new restaurants and other eateries are popping up. I’m still new but i see all the signs of growth. I read the local paper too so I can be informed on the more “boring/infrastructure” type things. It’s truly one of the last deals to be had in the Atlanta market. I’ve lived in ga. my whole life and have done very well with my real estate picks. Good luck. If you come--message me back.
Im looking to live downtown maybe a loft apt. Anything like that available
Hi Serita! You’ll need to reach out to me to discuss availability of properties.
My husband and I have been thinking about moving here. My only fear about moving to GA is that we are Republicans and we are white and Hispanic. I have heard that people in GA don't like white people or Republicans. I really hope that is not the case because my husband and I grew up in the West and we literally don't care what color someone's skin is or political values. We judge character and kindness. Any insight on this would be great because I want my kids to go somewhere safe and just all have a love for each other. I might be calling you when we think about moving from Utah. I hope we'll be welcomed into a community like this. I promise to make chilaquiles for neighbors and the community. :)
You wouldn't want to move here it sucks if you want to have got to go out it is a hellhole here again Griffin suck ass
Man come on with the fun facts..
is there any gujarati indian community in griffin?
Yeah, patel owns everygas station.
No
If you want to have fun got to go out of town surrounding counties is growing not Griffin
40 years there. Only place to live southside.
Shii go to 8th st
Ghetto asf🙄
Griffin is as bad as Augusta, Columbus and Macon! No one wants to live there! 42 miles from Atlanta! I was raised on 17th and lake avenue.
Thanks for your comments. Where do you live now?
I AGREE THE COURT SYSTEM HERE IS AWFULLY A SET UP AGAINST BLACK PPL I SAID IT
Please add access to health care
It's bad. Most go to Drs and Hospitals in Fayetteville and Henry County or even as far as Downtown Atlanta Emory. There are very few Dr Offices in Griffin also. Wellstar is one of the worst hospital's in Griffin Ga. Most opt to go to hospital's out of town if they have a choice and can get that far. Only use Wellstar as last resort. No Stroke Drs in Griffin. Only 2 heart Drs. Very few Family Drs.
Griffin is a piss poor city this place has more potholes than any town up north. School rate a low 2 by the state. High crime. Drugs are very easy to get. The people well I won’t say anything. Remember if you can’t say something nice don’t say anything. Don’t forget to lock your doors.
Gang's, Crime, Shootings, and some of the Worst Schools in the State. Roads are awful. Think about it, there is a REASON WHY, the growth is So Low... Lamar County is Way Better. Southern Spalding County Ga is mainly family owned land and homes. However crime is moving further into the outskirts. Home School is what most are doing now.
Not true where we live theirs no shooting . All our kids are honor students and have two that are in college now receiving their 2 degree. Mine you they were Valedictorian’s. So it’s all on the parents how you raise your kids.
@@annperry6267 I am looking to move to Griffith thanks you insight
Griffin Ga. is not Atlanta!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s part of the metropolitan of Atlanta.
And thank god for that!
Horrible crime
Griffin Georgia sucks I hate this one-horse town
Griffin ga is not Atlanta
Griffin stinks, One hospital for the whole city, county ! Downtown has been cleaned up and makes a nice lunch, day visit but Get Out before sundown. Gangs and Trailer trash everywhere.
Griffin is nasty and dangerous
