Hi! My family will be relocating to the Atlanta area in the next couple of months. My husband will be working in the Sandy Springs area. Does anyone know how the drive is from the Canton or Holly Springs area? I have told he would need to leave before 7:00am to have a 35 min or so drive, but no one has actually driven this route to be sure. Is there anyone from the Bridgemill, or Holly Springs area that can help me out? Thanks in advance! We are really looking forward to being in Georgia!

I can help you out! I live around the corner from BridgeMill in River Green and I commute to the Sandy Springs/Dunwoody area (by Perimeter Mall).

If your husband leaves the house anytime after 6:30am, it will take him a MINIMUM of one hour to get to Sandy Springs, no matter which route he takes. Trust me. I have been doing this commute for 2 years and I know every back way.

If he leaves by 6am, he may be able to do it in 40-45 minutes, but that's the best you'll get in the morning.

Thanks for the information! That really helps us out. We are still in Michigan and are trying to narrow down our search of neighborhoods/city we want to be in. Do you have kids? I have a 8yo and a 3yo. Are you familiar with the schools in your area? I have looked up the ratings in the area, but it would be nice to find a parents point of view. Thanks again.

No kids yet (1st one on the way), so I am not too familiar, but I do know that the schools fed by Bridgemill are some of the top schools in the county. Hope that helps.

I also live in canton. That will be a long drive that is only going to get worse with some major developments coming up. If you like Bridgemill you should look at a development east of canton off of East Cherokee dr named Woodmont. Your drive will be alot better and with alot less potential at getting worse in the coming years. However, Bridgemill is a very nice place to live.

Well I am moving to Bridgemills from Ohio - we looked at over 50 places prior to making our decision. The homes in Bridgemills are very affordable! I suggest you look around and then come back to Bridgemills. For $420,000 you can get a 6/5 nice home.

Default Moving to Georgia and need advice

Hello....my husband and I will be moving to Georgia. We had planned to move in July from California, but may want to move earlier. We are looking at building a home or buying one. I saw one on the Internet in Canton GA that I really like. What can you tell me about living in Canton? My husband will need to have access to an airport within an hour. Is that OK there to Atlanta? Help and thanks......queenbee
