Peachtree City made the NY Times. Unfortunately its behind the NYT's paywall, but it's accessible if you are within their free article limit. Nothing new explored here, so if you know PTC then it's just exploring what's already well known. Also, few teens are going 10 MPH here.

Parents talk about the quality of the schools. Or they describe the appeal of finding what feels like a small town, with access to lakes and woods to explore, less than an hour from the heart of Atlanta (traffic permitting).

But if there is one thing that defines Peachtree City, it is golf carts. The city has roughly 13,000 households and some 11,000 registered carts. Its logo? A peach and a golf cart.

Communities filled with golf carts tend to have older populations, people who have the time and inclination to ride 18 holes and then stop by the clubhouse for a drink.


Peachtree City has retirees, and it has golf courses. But the city is largely built around families, meaning carts figure prominently in the childhoods of its youngest residents.

Here’s a seemingly non-paywalled version of the story that I found in the Seattle Times:
