If you’re looking to purchase one of the homes in Dallas GA but are new to the area, let us share with you some of the reasons why people are happy to call this place home. Blending southern charm with the vibrancy of a city, Dallas continues to attract new residents, which is why we aim to offer a variety of homes to fit a variety of lifestyles.

Cost of living is a huge draw for many people moving to Dallas. Here you’ll find an affordable cost of living lower than the national average. This includes home prices, which are approximately 4% lower than the national average, which certainly adds to the appeal. In addition to housing costs, though, you’ll find that overall daily costs are typically lower, as well. This includes utilities, groceries, and even healthcare, easing some of the burden of general living expenses.

Costs matter, but so does your safety and peace of mind. Fortunately, Dallas is a family friendly city with well-regarded schools in the Paulding County School District. Here you’ll find a variety of programs and opportunities to give your child the education that serves them best. In addition, the city has low crime rates, which draws in families to the welcoming neighborhoods.

Dallas’s proximity and fairly straight-forward access to Atlanta, whether for work or play, is another big draw. While many people do commute to Atlanta for work, Dallas has a growing job market with work in a variety of fields, including healthcare, technology, education, and retail, with large companies such as Lockheed Martin, WellStar Health System, and Publix Supermarkets among others.

With its proximity to Atlanta, as well as its own solid job market, Dallas is known for and supports its diverse community. A variety of festivals and cultural events encourage residents to come together and learn about each other, creating a greater sense of community. You’ll also find numerous local groups and organizations that volunteer their time to serve the city in a variety of ways, from aid to building bonds within the community.

You’ll also enjoy multiple parks and trails for recreation. The Silver Comet Trail is a popular one for walking, biking, jogging, and hiking, with something for all skill levels set amid beautiful scenery. Among the various well-maintained parks is Burnt Hickory Park, which combines walking trails and beautiful nature with playgrounds and multiple sports facilities.

Dallas makes the most of its location and its welcoming nature to make residents feel at home here. So if you’re considering purchasing one of the homes in Dallas GA, reach out and contact Piedmont Homes today. We look forward to showing you our communities like Creekside Landing and the quality homes we build there.
