Located just 70 miles north of Atlanta in the mountains of Northeast Georgia, Lumpkin County is quickly becoming the choice for investors interested in being a part of the area’s excellent commercial potential and quality labor force.
The beauty of the area is apparent in the mountain vistas, the many rivers and historic downtown square. Retirees, families and second-home buyers are also investing in Dahlonega and Lumpkin County for its close proximity to Atlanta’s northern suburbs.
For outdoor enthusiasts, Lumpkin County offers an active lifestyle that is unparalleled in the metro area. Summers that are very comfortable for the South and moderate winters allow for year-round outdoor activities including hiking, fishing, kayaking and golf. The climate affords a distinct change of seasons, felt to different degrees in Lumpkin’s varied elevations, which range up to nearly 3,500 feet.
Adding to the quality of life in Lumpkin is a nationally acclaimed university, a full-service hospital and a new recreational complex. Good schools, a low cost of living and convenient access to cosmopolitan events also make Lumpkin a winning destination.
