Lawrenceville Georgia: The Crepe Myrtle City User Rating 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) I lived in Lawrenceville Georgia for a couple years, for employment. It is deemed as the Crepe Myrtle City due to the beautiful hues of crepe flowers that sprout up over its landscape. Lawrenceville is a great place for young singles and families. It has a multitude of events, cu ...Read More lture, and amenities. It is a melting pot of different frameworks. The area is a sizeable suburb of Atlanta, which has grown in popularity over the years.

Education is top notch. Their academic system is forward-thinking and is nationally top-ranked. There are a wealth of employment opportunities in the metro Atlanta area. However, the city of Lawrenceville has marginal workforce potential. The weather generally is great, and crime is low to moderate. The cost of living in Lawrenceville is above average for the state of Georgia.

In my experience, areas to enjoy in Lawrenceville would be Sugarloaf Parkway district. The parkway offers various attractions such as their shopping community, Discover Mills Mall, and Medieval Times. Read Less
