Lived here for 48 years and saw the growth in Columbia County and also saw the difference in the way law enforcement, schools, neighborhoods, security and safety are managed. Richmond County (Augusta) is mostly democrat run whereas the neighboring county (Columbia) is more conservative. Yes, there's crime in Columbia County but smaller amounts of it and dealt with differently. Taxes in Columbia county are somewhat lower than Richmond County. Lots of activities in both counties but we always feel safer in Columbia County during these events.

I live in N Augusta but from Augusta... this is completely accurate... great video

I've lived in Augusta since I was a teenager...about 35 years. I remember when Columbia County (Martinez, Evans, Grovetown) weren't that big at all and in fact were small suburbs and now wow have they expanded along with Augusta. The Military and the Medical District along with the Universities bring in new residents every year. Personally I like Hephzibah and southward there's more space and more country.

Nice channel...liked and subscribed. 😎👍

Growing up in Augusta, it will always be to me Ft Gordon and Clarks Hill. It will be a very long time before ppl will only know them for the names they currently have now. Several generations have to first die out.

[gordondalrymple]

It is a good idea to check out school districts and crime rates

When Whole Foods pulled out, along with Montgomery and Mobile----that was the writing on the wall.

more people actually moving to Augusta now days than leaving i mean look at all these apartments and traffic popping up everywhere more wrecks and how crowded it is

I spent 9 weeks of Signal School @ Fort Gordon/Eisenhower in 1971 and have no desire to visit that town ever.

[bromack]

I am a black man. I was born at Ft Gordon in 1958. It will always be Fort Gordon to me.

Have a potential job in Augusta Georgia. Some of the reasons that you state do not seem that bad. I was military for 6 years and have lived all over e.g. Spokane, WA, Seatte, WA, Pendleton, OR, Upstate NY. Overall it does not seem that bad -- what would your opinion be for someone like myself? Thank you!

Side note: No kids, just me, and I have a cat.

Most ppl move because of the crime and drugs. I grew up in Harrisburg all my life. I now live in Savannah because of my husband's family. I lived in N. Augusta too. The prices here are much more (rent) than in the augusta area. It may be higher now, but it was seriously hard for us to find a house near Sav for around the same price as in Aug.

I come from Sacramento, CA. That place is falling apart with the homeless and forest fires, like San Francisco nearby. I have been living in Columbia County for 3 years now and I think it's all right. It is getting better, not worse. I commute to the Summerville area of Augusta for college and I really like that area. Lots of beautiful, well-kept properties. So no, not all of Augusta is "run-down, crime-ridden or ghetto". I live in a suburban area of Grovetown that has experienced a lot of growth while the roads (2-lane) have stayed the same, causing a lot of heavy traffic. At least you see the County working acceptably hard to solve that problem, but really, growth and development are a bit out of control in my opinion. As a recent move here, I admit I am part of that problem, but I pay the taxes that are fixing the problem!.... Grovetown does not have a downtown at all. The core is just a hole with a few scattered old neighborhoods here and there. All public buildings are scattered all over the area and you still have to go to Evans to get your DMV and other public services. It would be really nice if the city re-developed the core of the town as a walkable, attractive small town with a boulevard/Main Street/Broadstreet a mindfully-designed city park with strict usage rules and a small Police detachment nearby, mostly for deterrence. Evans did something similar to that and it is working fine.

Homelessness drugs and crime are related to income

I'm fixing to leave Augusta soon in a few months basically late 2025

I have been here all my life, I was raised in Thomson Ga. I get to Augusta when I can. I take my father to the VA at times. Over the decades I have seen many changes in Augusta and not for the best. The whole city has become a Ghetto. That is why conservatives have left this town. It is mostly a welfare town. That is why it will become another Detroit. Do not believe me, just ask Austin Rhodes. He is a local news talk host.
Over the years many inductries have left Augusta, just look into South Augusta's history. This is what socialism gets us. Some folks call it progressiveness. It is just code for communism.That is what Augusta, Ga has become a communist regime after the consolidation of its two governments into one. People living in the County really have no more say with what goes on. That is why they have just counted their losses, packed thier belonging and fled like refugees for an unknown future in a more stable land called Columbia County.

Lincolnton is not on the other side of the lake.

[gordondalrymple]

Ok I listened to this, and for sure I’m not flying into Augusta Airport

[followfreedom]

Move there if you vote Democrat. I wouldn't live in Ricmond County if you paid me $500, 000.

[ImJustDavid-pk]

Dont move to Augusta. I live on a road behind pep boys on gordon highway. It is horrible.

[ValarieParks-oikd]

Atlanta Medical students are moving there ..moreso EVANS, GA. They feel the homes are cheaper and love it.
