You live closer and are more in touch. Give us your analysis. What are the demographics. Where is the population change coming from. Data on age of population changes might give indictions of retirements community growth? Demographics on culture or creed might give indications of whether the flight from South of the Border (Hispanic) is settling in the area. Job markets might indicate whether there is growth in a job market like high tech or auto industry. Are certain suburbs such as Atlanta filtrating out much as has happened in Montgomery, Alabama but to a much larger extent population wise. There is even the possibly and different reason for each community growth in those Georgia areas.

Every retirement seminar tells future retires of the baby boomer generation the negative aspects of retiring in Florida. My mail box is stuffed on literature for communiites in North and South Carolina. Is it possible that the overflow or influx is going into the Georgia Communities near there.

Give us your analysis.

Property taxes in many areas are eating people's lunch that are retired and on fixed incomes. They just dramatically reduced the property tax rate in counties around me in Virginia (reduction of 20 to 30 cents per hundred) but the escalations in appraised property values have continued to raise propety tax by over four to five hundred dollars a year per average piece of property. Property owners are sometimes finding their tax and insurance bills higher than their mortgage. Some imigrant children numbers in public schools is overtaking the budgets of many communities.

Why it it jawgagal? Give us your view.
