Laurel as a whole is not a bad place to live. Housing is considerably cheaper than in many parts of the DC/Baltimore area. There are some nice shops and restaurants  More

I grew up in large and small cities overseas as a government 'brat' and also spent more than 10 years on the West Coast in Portland, OR. I moved to Newnan 11 years ago  More

We have lived in Newnan for over a year, and I am amazed at how much it has grown. The people are very friendly, and everything you need is pretty much in one general  More
