My family and I are thinking about moving to Grantville. I'am marry and we have three kids 14, 12, and 5 years old. Could you give me any information about your town and the schools. Thank You.

I live near it in Newnan, it's very rural and there's not a lot to do, but it's close to Newnan which has a lot of stores and restaurants

Thank You Tdiddyoo27 for your reply. My family and I are driving to Grantville this weekend, so if you have any information on the best schools to share this would be very helpful.

Grantville Is A Town That Is Stuck In Time As In The 1960's! It Is A Town Full Of Nothing. Everything Sucks About Grantville. There Are No Opps For Employment, Recreation, Shopping, Entertainment. They Have The Crappiest Library I've Ever Been In, Poor Book Selection, No Updated Material. A One Man Post Office That Closes 2 Hours For Lunch, Why I Don't Know. The Politicians Do Not Spend The Money Making Grantville A Better Community. The Kids Do Not Have A Descent Park To Play In. You Will Have To Drive Up To Newnan To Do Everything. You Can Settle For The Only Restaurant In Town, The Very Expensive Only Restaurant In Town! The Food Is Ok, But Anybody Can Cook Chicken WingsModerator cut: Removed I Know You're Wondering If I Hate It So Much, Why Do I Live Here. I'm Been Trying To Sell My House For The Longest, I'm Tired Of The Long Commute To Work.

Grantville is not stuck in the 60's, maybe the 50's... Grantville has been a hole in the wall, a greasy spot on hiway 27, for a hundred plus years. This town sucks to the younger group but lets the older generation live in a quiet town. Never mind the politics, the forever in fighting, the political insiders that control everything, this place is growing. Property values have grown in the past several years. The property values have soared in the Newan area, and the builders have found that people will commute to Atlanta from Grantville. The distance from high priced Henry County to atlanta is about the same as Grantville to atlanta. prices there are off the wall. Subdivisions are sprouting up all over the place here, more new money is coming into the town.This is the time for this area to grow.
If you can stand the local infighting, the controlling higharchy of the local politicans, the drive to work, this town is worth the money.
I don't live here nor want to, but have good friends here and my mom lived there for years. The town has grown ten times in the last 10years. Hang on, it will get better.
