Leesburg

Leesburg, Georgia Real Estate: Named for American Statesman Richard Henry Lee, Lee County is a proud, tranquil place to live for roughly 36,000+ happy residents. Communities like Leesburg and Albany share a quiet family-oriented community feel, leaving the hustle and bustle to Atlanta, which is 140 miles to the north. Lee County has a quality school district, a low crime rate and warm weather. The county is especially popular with outdoors enthusiasts. Thousands of acres of woods full of ducks, deer and quail are well-liked by local and visiting hunters, while the Flint River and smaller creeks team with catfish, bass and bream for avid fishermen and women. Camping, picnicking and hiking are also common pastimes here, with public parks, open land and the county’s own wild animal park, Chehaw Park, to explore and relax in. Festivals like Leesburg’s annual Memorial Day weekend Southern Heritage Festival and the Smithville Chicken Pie festival offer neighbors a chance to catch up with each other and enjoy local food, crafts and exhibits with their families. Lee County communities are a place for families, retirees and those seeking to escape the fast pace of the city. And conveniently enough, it’s only a few hours away from big-city Atlanta or the beaches of Florida. The population will continue to grow as community projects enhance the quality of living in Leesburg, but the easy tempo of day-to-day life here is certain to remain the same.
