@@Blacklyteshow yes, it is and slowly growing!

@@katerratherealtor Thanks for letting me know, I look forward to returning there. 😎

You're so right-when more people move to an area, it usually drives up the cost of living. It's supply and demand in action! As the population grows, housing and real estate values tend to increase, especially if the area is desirable. It’s happening in a lot of cities right now, not just Nashville. If you're a homeowner, this could be a great opportunity to build equity. But if you're renting or looking to buy, it can definitely feel like a challenge. It's always good to keep an eye on the market trends and explore programs or options that might help you manage those rising costs. Thanks for sharing your experience! 😊

I’m so glad you’re enjoying the area! 😊

I'm glad you found it helpful. Please feel free to reach out to me for help in your search!

Fort Valley is growing but there housing prices are still considered affordable. It is considered a college town though, so it depends on what type of community you're looking for.

Hello! Unfortunately, I do not know much about obtaining a visa but a starting point that I would recommend is working on obtaining employment.

Thank you for your feedback! I’d like to clarify a few things about the intention behind my video. First, I’m not taking money out of my pocket-in fact, I’ve had several clients reach out to me because they found this video helpful. Many have shared that the information aligns with exactly what they’re looking for in an area, which is my goal: to provide honest, well-rounded perspectives to help people make informed decisions. This video isn’t meant to deter or talk down about Hephzibah or any other area. I was raised in Hephzibah and graduated from Cross Creek High School, so this place holds a lot of personal significance for me. The points I share in the video are based not only on my own experiences but also on feedback from others in the community. If you watch the video objectively, you’ll see it’s about giving viewers a realistic view of the area, highlighting both the pros and cons. I understand how someone who isn’t from here or who may have been here for a shorter time could misinterpret the tone, but I truly appreciate your perspective and the opportunity to explain. Thank you again for engaging!

outstanding input

Thank you for your input and for sharing your perspective! You’ve touched on a lot, so let me break it down. First, the new Kroger you mentioned is actually located in West Augusta, not Hephzibah, and it’s further than 10 minutes away. With the recent growth and increased traffic, getting from Hephzibah to downtown Augusta or other areas can easily take 30 minutes or more, depending on the route and time of day, especially for those who don’t use the expressway. Regarding Grovetown, it’s a mix of active-duty and retired military residents, with more emphasis on active-duty due to its proximity to Fort Eisenhower. I completely agree that Hephzibah is a great option for those looking for peace and quiet. As I often share with clients, it’s a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and downtown areas. There are certainly some beautiful homes and neighborhoods in Hephzibah, as well as access to private and charter school options that many families appreciate. The video’s purpose was to provide a balanced overview of Hephzibah, and I understand that not every experience will align with mine or the points I’ve shared. I truly appreciate you watching and adding to the conversation-it’s always helpful to hear other perspectives.

i agree with you in all but for those that know nothing about the area will take it exactly as you stated with no other perspective’s or real compare and contrast from the prior vids, the above was a lot better in explanation for those who never been here, again, i agree about 90 percent now that you was “able to break it down truly” also, i’m past diamond lakes and it definitely takes 10 mins to get to gate 1 or the new Kroger via i520 without a doubt. And down town to the hospitals going the speed limit definitely takes about 23 mins, as i am a retiree and prior active duty who knows that also grovetown is definitely more retirees than hephzibah, grovetown is the HUB of retirees and active duty and retirees, as Hephzibah at least where i live at is mixed because a lot of retirees cannot afford 700k homes and above and they can’t afford to live in lakes and so forth because of the cost of living is too high… some of us was able to retired and live like that but majority are in grovetown where the homes are believe 450k easily (but again that that 10 percent i beg to differ with you) i really like how you dug deeper when breaking it down so all can have an elaborate understanding because it highlighted and provided more facts for those that really don’t know anything about the area. Good post

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts! I’d love to clear up a few points for you and anyone else who might be new to my channel. First, Grovetown isn’t directly connected to the military base, but it is conveniently close, which makes it a popular choice for people looking for a shorter commute. The road widening you mentioned is part of a larger effort to keep up with Grovetown’s rapid growth-a growth recognized nationally in recent years. As for crime, it’s an unfortunate reality in most cities, and no area is immune. Augusta, like other places, has its challenges, but many wonderful communities here offer safe, family-friendly neighborhoods. If you’ve seen more of my content, you’ll know my goal is always to provide a balanced perspective on any area to help buyers make the best choice for themselves, whether that’s Augusta, Evans, Grovetown, or beyond. And, just so you know, I absolutely represent homes in Grovetown as well! Thanks again for your comment-I welcome different viewpoints, as they help add depth to the discussion on the area.

Thank you for sharing your experience, and welcome to Augusta! It’s great to hear that you’re already noticing some of the unique aspects of living here. The lighter traffic at night is definitely one of the perks of being in a smaller city compared to Arizona-it’s a nice change of pace for many people. You’re absolutely right about rent being more affordable here, and I love that you’re already thinking ahead to homeownership-that’s such a smart move, especially as the area continues to grow. Augusta may not have the same nightlife as larger cities like Phoenix, but we do have some hidden gems, from local restaurants to fun spots like the Riverwalk and nearby events in Evans and Grovetown. Wishing you the best as you settle into your new home. If you ever have questions about the area or need tips, feel free to reach out!

In my opinion, no, you would need a little higher price point.

It seems everyone has a hiring sign nowadays, any specific industry?

Thank you for your feedback!

We have definitely seen a change in the weather pattern we’re usually accustomed to this year. 🥴

Come on….it’s not that bad lol

@@katerratherealtor lol you’re right, I need to be nice.

I Don’t know how old this thread is but Hephzibah has different areas within, those areas are let’s say separated clearly with those who can afford and those who cannot, the development is very much here and set, i can’t compliment this video at all … there is everything from chick filet to a brand new Krogers (the biggest in the whole Augusta area) every fast food restaurant is in Hephzibah and homes and better school than the augusta area are within hephzibah to include a hidden Gem such as private and charter schools , there are many beautiful big gas stations and stores as well as too many nice homes and sub division .. Again i don’t know what side of Hephzibah she was explaining but it only sound like the hood areas far away from the established parts… also augusta is about 18 mins away not 30 mins and there is too many beautiful huge luxury homes and apartments in hephzibah, also i’m from philly so i know what country vs city look like and Hephzibah is great for city people who like peace, don’t believe the hype this place is away from the hoods and crime mostly, again there is poverty everywhere but the hephzibah she didn’t explain i guess is another youtube video … we living great and schools are awesome and most of the trouble is at the lower part of hephzibah and augusta ga

I have done a video specifically on schools within the area. You can also check the websites for the Richmond County Board of Education and Columbia County Board of Education for more info.

All the communities I’ve mentioned in this video will be HOA maintained. If you are looking specifically for a townhome they are going to be HOA maintained in our area as well as most single family home communities.

The cost of living in Georgia is definitely not comparable to living in NYC.

You’re welcome, so glad it was helpful! 😊

Thank you for sharing your perspective as a Grovetown resident. As I’ve mentioned in my other ‘reasons not to’ videos, the intent is not to discourage anyone or present the area in a negative light, but rather to provide a well-rounded view of what it’s like to live here. I appreciate your feedback and the points you’ve raised.

We do have a public bus system but it only covers a limited area of Augusta and it does not go to Columbia County. So, I would definitely recommend having a personal vehicle if possible.

Yes ma’am, what information are you looking for? Send me a text or email.

It depends on what you are looking for in a city. Give me a call and let’s talk more.

You're welcome!

Can’t help you there 😂

@@katerratherealtor ok 😂
