Why choose Athens, GA?

Athens, Georgia, is conveniently located about 70 miles east of Atlanta, and with a relatively mild climate, Athens has a lot of great things to offer year-round. Are you someone who likes spending time outdoors, art, music, theater, or discovering new eateries? Athens offers something to do for everyone! Many enjoy the iconic music scenes at numerous venues or the world-class restaurants with southern comfort food with innovative farm-to-table menus. Bishop Park is a great place to bring the family to enjoy the pool and playground. If biking is your jam, Dudley Park connects two bike trails, the Firefly Trail, and the North Oconee Greenway.

Over the years, Athens has also experienced exponential growth in the medical community with the opening of the Medical School of Georgia Athens Campus and the initiation of its vibrant residency program. Athens is considered one of the best places to live because it has a low unemployment rate, low cost of living, and high overall quality of life. Clarke County School District serves Athen's students with fourteen elementary schools, four middle schools, and three high schools. Many medical professionals call Athen's charming neighboring Oconee County home, about a 10-minute commute to UCBC's main campus, and have an outstanding school system.
