Your Adorable , I finally convince my Family after I have been living in South Florida for 71 years , to move in that area of Blairsville , Hayesville , Murphy to escape the Hot weather and the craziness of Florida . Even my grown son wants to move . We are planning on moving up there hopefully at the end of this year , as we will be putting are house on the market . As at my old age , I still ride motorcycles as I have 4 differant ones and can't wait to ride my new Indian up there , as I been there a few times and know some good places to ride . I am a Pastor and retired , and my wife is much involved with the church in the town we live in Sebastian Fl . We are active with the food bank for the needy . We will miss our Church Family and friends , but we will come back down to visit during the Winter Months . We like so far the Hayesville , Murphy area , but I love Blairsville too . Hope to find a good church up there , Pastor Ray Ruggiero , Sebastian Florida .
living just outside Atlanta our closest Walmart is 6 miles but 20+ minute drive. We have a small place in Stephens county (NE Ga) closest Walmart is 14 miles and a 20 minute stress free drive.
Planning to purchase a home in North Ga, but would like to rent first a pet friendly (3 dogs) either a month to month or short lease to take our time to find a house. Is that something you can help with or any recommendations?
While it might be expensive, a short term rental, like a vacation rental that would allow you to rent for 1-3 months might be the best bet. Long term rentals are very hard to come by, so looking for a house or apartment to rent for a short lease will likely be even harder to find. Unfortunately I cannot help with the renting side of things, but I’d love to see if I can help you when you’re ready to start looking for a home to purchase. Thanks for watching!!
From Blairsville, your best bet for major shopping will be Dawsonville or Woodstock further south in GA, as they are only about an hour to an hour and 15 minutes away. Chattanooga & Asheville might be other shopping options, but they will be about a 2-2.5 hour drive. Blairsville has Walmart & Ingles. There’s a TJMaxx in Blue Ridge, and a couple smaller options for shopping in Murphy, NC, which are each about 20 minutes from Blairsville. If you need help with anything for relocation, feel free to reach out. 😊
Well that’s really going to depend on what part of Atlanta you are going to. But I actually commuted a few times from Blairsville to Buckhead and it would take 2 hours. That being said, from Jasper to Buckhead would be about an hour. Going further south than Buckhead is going to add to the time, especially since you’ll probably hit a little more traffic the more you head into downtown Atlanta. I hope this helps!
I don’t have a green thumb, so I never plant anything….i can’t keep it alive. 😆 Generally speaking, the best time for planting is early spring and fall.
Blairsville G.A Mean Horrible Local People!!! One poor woman that always wears a Green Bandana Records How mean these people were. Her Mother was K--led and she had to live with her Mothers k--ler or be homeless . They took her land when she needed cataract surgery , she didn't get a penny. Almost the whole town is her mothers ki--lers family and they do what he says. Luckily thanks to someone that lives far away ,she was able to get eye surgery . But people especially her family are really mean to her, even nurses . They think she's gay, (well some do) She's recorded how mean people are. She has her cellphone on record when she goes out in public.
Newcomers should be sure to tell locals how great the area they came from is and how we can fix our area so it suits you better.
Keep it real man

Outlying, not outer-lying.
Other than that, thanks for the helpful info!

We're looking at getting a summer place up there. The friendliness sounds refreshing. Your husband is funny!
Lol! He keeps us laughing! I have several people contacting me about getting summer places or vacation homes up here. You should reach out!
There is no Kroger in Ellijay. That would be in Jasper
She put that correction in there.
I heard there is now a ALDIS
What towns should retired Californians move to, and the wife doesn't like to be too secluded. She might still want to work PT as a RN.
lot of people moved from California to Nashville Tn or the Charlotte
Good info
Glad you think so!

We are moving to Blairsville in a few months.
What are the shopping choices if you go north into North Carolina or northwest into Tennessee?
From Blairsville, your best bet for major shopping will be Dawsonville or Woodstock further south in GA, as they are only about an hour to an hour and 15 minutes away. Chattanooga & Asheville might be other shopping options, but they will be about a 2-2.5 hour drive. Blairsville has Walmart & Ingles.

I know its a commute but how is the commute from jasper to Atlanta

I think i can afford a $250,000 double wide on land but i dont want a HOA lol 😅
I can't believe how expensive it is. The same double wide here would be $100,000 here.
They don't like yankees up there . Beware , if your from NY or Jersey or Especially from Rhode Island , they will chew you a new one .
They don't like people from FLORI- DAHHH , especially if your from South Fla .
