Considering buying a house in Snellville (Gwinnett County - Brookwood school district). What do you all think about that area from an investment perspective (e.g., short/mid/longer term real estate values)? The house we found is beautiful and close to family (we have young kids), but it’s becoming more “city” as Atlanta moves outward - not sure if this is a good or bad thing.

Not the highest ranking schools in the metro area if that matters to you. I believe Suwanee has the best schools in Gwinnett County. As far as gentrification goes, still quite far from the core of the city to be that worried about.

Any context? Why a no go?

I like Snellville but I don’t think you’ll see a huge increase in property values. Brookwood isn’t a bad school at all.

It’s not as new as Alpharetta/John’s Creek/Suwannee but it’s safe, on 78 so easier to travel into certain parts of ATL and every possible restaurant chain and a lot of shopping options for errands.

I grew up nearby in Lilburn and I frequently go back to visit my parents

Thanks, makes sense!

Family is in Gwinnett so trying to be near them. Any reasons why not Snellville?

What do you mean by more “city”
