Extremely flexible on where as I work from home, Canton is one of the other places I’ve been looking at a lot, do you prefer it over Woodstock? I’ve also been looking at Suwannee, Sugar Hill ,and Buford. I appreciate the reply!

I also work from home. Well it really depends. I wouldn't say I prefer it but the entire I-575 is good. You can't go wrong with Kennesaw, Woodstock, Canton or Ball Ground. Woodstock is great. There are lots of areas in the Atlanta Metro that would fit you. Check out Cherokee County.

Not a fan of Buford. I’d stick to Cherokee county or Cartersville if you want to be north of Atlanta. More affordable and good schools.

I live in Buford and enjoy it. I work from home and everything is close by. If you have to travel into the city or the airport, you are screwed no matter where you live.
I travel a lot up to SC so having easy access to 85 is really nice. I’m not an OT baller but the houses in the area are right in the range for what you are looking and you can buy brand new. Give it a month or so and the market will start to light up like it does every year.
Also, forgot to mention the park system in Gwinnett county is absolutely amazing and worth the taxes I pay for it.

I live in Sugar Hill. It’s a city that’s growing rapidly.
Schools depend on the cluster
The Sugar Hill “Lanier” cluster has has historically been lower - middle class. That is changing very quickly because all of the new houses are bringing in upper middle class families. One of the elementary schools is considered to be the top in the state. Good thing about Lanier is they are tearing down old houses and trailer parks to build $300k-400k houses.
The North Gwinnett cluster has been considered middle/ upper class since I was in high school (14 years ago). The students score on the high end of the test spectrum and the athletic departments/associations are solid and well funded.
If you are looking to move to Gwinnett stay on the Northside Suwanee/Sugar Hill/ Buford. The rest of county is quickly going to shite with in influx of people from Dekalb/Clayton county moving here for the schools. They can’t afford the pricing around here so they are moving into Lawrenceville, Duluth, Norcross, Grayson.
Postives
access to 85 and 400.
Great parks closeby and close to lake Lanier.
Atlanta is about 45 minutes away during non traffic times.
Negatives
The traffic around here is going to be terrible in 5-10 years especially in the Suwanee area.

I live in Buford / Flowery Branch.
Can answer most questions.
I agree with Lvillian. Stay away from Lawrenceville. Trending the wrong way. Gwinnett is not what it once was
Cumming/Buford area is nice and growing.
