My daughter’s boyfriend is from PA and now in GA and says he loves it. 🥹❤️ His parents are army and he’s lived in several states and says this is his favorite out of all the places he’s lived.
As a Georgia native, "bless your heart " is not always an insult. Outsiders don't always pick up the nuances of inflection. Consider the circumstances and tone of voice.
LOL. I'm from NJ. I have spent time in the south on several occasions. And I have experienced both versions of "bless your heart." I have to say. Nothing beats southern hospitality.
Well said. I agree, I was raised by Georgia women and been around southern people my whole life and I have heard the phrase al along, (even said it myself occassionally) but it was always an expression of empathy and kindness. Personally, I don't recall it being used as an insult. It just wasn't my expericnce. I think it is mainly an invention of Hollywood more than anything else.
@@EonaanAbsolutely. Atlanta traffic has progressively worsened over the last decade. Largely due to lack of a functionally developed rail system. People are reluctant to use it anyway because of all of the crime.
Georgia truly has so much to offer! From its breathtaking natural beauty and rich history to the warm hospitality of its people, it’s no surprise that so many are drawn to this incredible state. The balance of affordability, culture, and charm makes it a top destination for anyone looking to relocate or explore.
No No Ga is full lol.. thank you for your service sir and love the videos along with the humor!! Speaking of ft benning, I live 5 Mins from back gate and spent 10 hours hunting the thousands of acres today,place is huge!!
Home state is Ga. Left GA for Colorado and stayed for about 4 years. Left Colorado because I missed home. Now we are moving back to Colorado because anywhere around metro ATL is just too crowded or someplace you don’t want to live.
Briggs, thank you for your service. Born and raised right here in North Georgia.Currently reside in Dalton, but lived in Resaca and also in Dawsonville.. you mentioned the peaches , but don't forget President Carter and his peanut farm.
Yep! Moved to Kennesaw in 1988 because of a job with Siemens. LOVE this place! Small town (but growing like hell), big yard, great community, just minutes outside of Megalopolis. Perfect!
Georgia is undeniably a beautiful state with so much to offer, from its stunning landscapes to its rich culture. But as more people move in, it’s important to acknowledge some challenges, like the growing issue of homelessness in certain areas. How can Georgia maintain its appeal while addressing these pressing concerns?
If for whatever reason, you come to Georgia during the summer, make sure you have a bottle "No Natz". It is sold at most convenience stores. You will need it.
My wife and I are native Floridians. We have family there. When we retired she wanted to be near family, but I didn't want to move to Florida - insurance, crime, cost of real estate, etc. We ended up in Thomasville 30 miles north of Tallahassee a couple hours from the coast and none of Florida's negatives. Hurricanes are down to Tropical Storms before they get to us. Our neighborhood is split between UGA and FSU fans.
I live next door in Grady county. My daughter and her family are in Thomasville which is why we moved to South Georgia. It’s equally distant for us to go to thomasville or Tallahassee.
A former co-worker of mine moved to GA with his wife and kid, mostly to be with the church he belongs to. Though there is traffic commuting into Atlanta from where he now lives, he told me it is not like the gridlock traffic of Los Angeles, and he definitely does not miss the traffic of Los Angeles and southern CA.
We moved from to east central GA from south FL in 72, bought some incredibly cheap land back then. One of the best things we ever did. Except for about 6-8 weeks of hot and humid, the rest is delightful. We have beautiful spring and fall seasons, winter refreshingly cool. Most of the people are nice and helpful. No place is perfect, just because it doesn't suit some people doesn't mean it's a bad place.
I’ve lived in GA all my 65+ years. Worked/lived in Athens for 37((RN). Moved back to “the country” 3 yrs ago. Your take on the weather is true! I’ve had friends who couldn’t make it home for the holidays-they spent Christmas Day as part of my family. Most of us are unselfish giving people-we will help in crisis, bring you food when you’re sick,& treat friends as family. Thank you for such a positive view of GA & also thank you for your service! Merry Christmas!!
Bought property in the mountains of GA in 2018. Lived in Miami so we went back and forth throughout the year. Little by little we started feeling we did not want to go back to Miami, too hot, too crowded, too much light, noise, air and water pollution. Moved home base to GA last Oct. The view from all my windows is the beautiful Chattahoochee-Oconee forest. The lake allows us to enjoy water related activities. The air is pure, the forest is beautiful, the people are lovely. If I want a fix of culture all I have to do is drive to Atlanta. I love it here! I will visit Miami as a tourist but will definitely not live there.
Let me tell ya, years ago my (now ex) husband and I went to visit friends of his. They were wealthy, I think they lived in the Buckhead area. At any rate, that area was already jammed packed with people and the traffic was insane. This was over twenty five years ago now. Same thing goes for Chattanooga, TN. CROWDED...!
Watching you cover a video on Ga gives me a better sense of the accuracy of your videos. I did not detect 1 lie. Thanks again Mr. Briggs. I appreciate your uploads so much.
I love Georgia. We live just south of Savannah on the marsh We can watch a crabber pulling up his crab traps going down the inlet when it’s crabbing season. We feel like we’ve added probably a good 10 years to our lives due to lack of stress. We have wonderful neighbors we all help each other out cutting down trees, yard work etc. and yes you can knock on your neighbors door for a cup of sugar if you run out!
I know a number of people in Georgia and have visited some of them they all seem happy. I looked at land in Georgia for my new home but got messed about by the government waiting for a green card just because I am from the UK. So now my future home is in the Bahamas. Thank you for for the video.
Warning: if you choose to live below the "gnat line" you will need to adapt to wearing "gnat hats"-- if you are outside, mowing, gardening you will need a gnat hat. And mowing your yard is an expected requirement. Gnats, mosquitoes, roaches the size of mice (palmetto bugs/ pine trees) can drive you crazy. The heat and humidity can be horrible. The Varsity will be recommended but beware you are in for a Grease Fix - typical southern cuisine.
I lived in the Atlanta area for high school, college, and my first "real" job. I feel like nearly all the growth of GA is greater, greater Atlanta. The only thing I did NOT like about GA was the humidity ("the heat is fine, it's the humidity"). You are spot on in reporting that college football is king, though PLENTY of people are NOT UGA people (greater Atlanta is full of SEC grads). As for peaches, South Carolina is the top peach producer.
Planning my escape from Fort Stewart now. They can keep it. You sparked a good one with Carson City. I lived there 30 years ago after leaving the Air Force /McChord AFB.
Okay Briggs. Maybe we'll put northen Georgia for retirement. Not sure how humid it is compared to the southern part of GA. But we'll put it on the "to consider", especially the small towns. Thanks
I’ve lived in Georgia all my life many years ago it was a great place to live. You could go 20 to 30 miles outside Atlanta and be in the countryside. Now you have to travel 60 miles or more to get away from the mad rush . Just to much construction and building
My friend moved to Georgia three times. She moved to Georgia left and went back to Georgia. Left Georgia and came back to PA and moved to Georgia AGAIN and came back to PA and she's actually from Massachusetts LOL!
Gorgia is not a cheap state ,housing is very affordable compared to many other states .Gorgia is a very beautiful state , some of the public schools are not very safe and great.gorgia is a good place to retire.
My home state. The corporate and film industries have really made Atlanta specifically boom. In the scheme of things, its still fairly affordable. Can't say I'll move back but proud of my state
Other towns, cities in the state are booming as well, and depending on how long you’ve been gone you likely won’t recognize anything. Development has been constant, this is coming from a DMV area transplant and long term resident.
@neox9369 I make it back a few times a year (in fact I'm here for the holidays right now lol). You're totally right though, I hear other cities are starting to pop too! The states got a lot of positive growth going for it
@@jarredmorris9749 yeah I moved from MD, specifically right outside of DC in Montgomery county in 07. My sister just moved down from PG county Maryland around Covid to Douglasville and got married. Development is non stop in Cobb, and all up and down the 75 and 85 corridor. In the southeast NC, GA, SC and FL mainly are the culprits, then Texas, Idaho and Washington State to the west are where migration is going to as well. GA is projected to have 23 million residence by 2100, and 13 million by 2035 or so. It also projected to move from 8th most populous state to the 4th surpassing New York State and sooner Ohio and Illinois.
I did move there in 2002 and lived there for several years. I loved it the food was great made some great friends. I moved away I won’t be moving back only because it’s too humid for me and the food was too good.
Amazing! Out of the "hundreds and hundreds" of small towns you picked the one where I currently live. After living in the DC Metroplex for 25 years, then SW Florida and the Space Coast, this is really out is the stix.What brought me here? Why number 10, of course!
I too first experienced Georgia through the army. Went to Benning in July 2013 right after Ft Sam Houston in TX and honestly I preferred the Georgia weather. It's humid sure but nowhere near as hot compared.
I live in Athens, GA. People need to stop coming here. We've been in a perpetual state of construction that's really a pain in the ass. Roads and apartment complexes - non-stop.
Floridian here... Georgia is unbelievably affordable, especially anything south of Atlanta. All housing is roughly 30-60% less than Florida, overall. Now that I'm climatized to this ridiculous heat and humidity, I can't go too far north to retire :)
Georgia is nothing like Florida. It’s common for Atlanta to get down into the single digits several times each winter. In the mountains, there’s lots of snow
@@neox9369He wasn't going to name every single place, that would take to much time. He wrote "etc." which is an abbreviation for "etcetera" which means so on or so forth.
Too hot and humid in the summer for me. We used to live in Virginia and that was too hot and humid. But visiting the office in Atlanta in the summer you really knew why they called it Hotlanta.
This Georgia boy moved from the Atlanta area almost 20 years ago. For those who wish to express their intellectual superiority to me for this, bless your heart...
Really inexpensive energy prices too. A large swath of the state is covered by electric cooperatives whose electricity prices are much cheaper than what you’ll find in other states.
When I went to visit my sister in GA it was sooooo humid, I knew I would never live there. So much water and a church on every corner. This was on the coastal side, wonder if the interior is the same way?
lol just go do research, you were in one county or one small area, the state is vast. North mountains, Piedmont regions, south GA, urban areas, exurbs, farm lands, suburbs etc. Look up Alpharetta, Suwannee, Blue Ridge, Elijay, Haiwassee, Sandy Springs, John’s Creek. The coast itself is over 100 miles from Savannah to St Mary’s.
South Carolina is good for the military, many of them live here after they get out. I here in a military town and I'm speaking from what I know, and we love our military here as well. Home of Shaw AFB and U.S. Army Central Command.
As a Georgia native now living in Texas, I was going to move back home but since I left 12 years ago prices significantly increased. My family says traffic is horrible. This is the Augusta area where the military base is.
Tailgating…Wisconsin has entered the Chat. If you’re looking for an amazing tailgate, come to Wisconsin where we tailgate for anything!! Sometimes, we tailgate just to tailgate.
You didn’t mention Brunswick and the Golden Isles. Jekyll Island, St Simons island and Sea Island. St Simons island is bigger than Tybee and has more stuff to see and do. Also you didn’t mention Kings Bay Naval base in St Mary’s, it has Trident submarines.
I know a guy whom moved to Georgia. He moved back 3 months later because everyone tried to get money out of him and the air was wet constantly. couldn't breath.
Atlanta is my favorite city aside from the poor urban development and bad infrastructure which make it seem too crowded, even though there are far more populous cities in the world that function more smoothly. The real problem is excessive car dependence and ignorance regarding the problem.
Moved to Georgia from Pennsylvania 4 years ago and I absolutely love it and the people are the best. ❤
My daughter’s boyfriend is from PA and now in GA and says he loves it. 🥹❤️
His parents are army and he’s lived in several states and says this is his favorite out of all the places he’s lived.

I have to say. Nothing beats southern hospitality.
Only the white women say bless your heart. 😂
That's only about 1/6 of the Georgia population. 😮

Cost of living depends on WHERE in Georgia. My daughter lives in a north Atlanta suburb, and price of goods and services is high.
GA just didn’t have the flaws of other southern states as bad.
Some counties are actually falling in population
Exactly what it is.
Thank you for your service Brigg.

I moved away years ago but it's my home state. I hope times would revert to the 1980s again. Pleasant state to live in back then
I’m moving to Atlanta next month. It wasn’t on my radar but, I’ve been unemployed for 4 months. I got bills to pay man, Georgia got jobs.

Really inexpensive energy prices too. A large swath of the state is covered by electric cooperatives whose electricity prices are much cheaper than what you’ll find in other states.

lol just go do research, you were in one county or one small area, the state is vast. North mountains, Piedmont regions, south GA, urban areas, exurbs, farm lands, suburbs etc. Look up Alpharetta, Suwannee, Blue Ridge, Elijay, Haiwassee, Sandy Springs, John’s Creek. The coast itself is over 100 miles from Savannah to St Mary’s.

You didn’t mention Brunswick and the Golden Isles. Jekyll Island, St Simons island and Sea Island. St Simons island is bigger than Tybee and has more stuff to see and do. Also you didn’t mention Kings Bay Naval base in St Mary’s, it has Trident submarines.
I know a guy whom moved to Georgia. He moved back 3 months later because everyone tried to get money out of him and the air was wet constantly. couldn't breath.
Ozark was also filmed there eventhough it's supposed to be the Ozarks haha
Georgia On My Mind
We moved to Georgia in 2018...very small town...people are "nice" but not too friendly. I know two people since I've been here.
A little bit of chicken fried. Cold beer on a Friday night😂
And cholesterol. LOL.

Gnats are only in Macon and below in GA. We refer to it as the Gnat line lol
“She just don’t know how to fry chicken” bless her heart.
Georgia weather sucks!!! Too hot and humid most of the year. Oh yeah and the bugs!
Yes, we train our bugs to keep out the undesirables.
That’s mostly in the summer fall and spring are nice
Best college football in the country. Go Dawgs!
