Avoid living here

Warner Robins is a pathetic excuse for a community. The local natives are a haughty and ignorant group of individuals who’ve amassed enough wealth feeding off of public sector dollars via Robins AF base to make them the most pretentious group of bigots I’ve ever lived around ...Read More
. In Houston County minority communities are completely ignored and feared by a white population living in the past. This is the only city I’ve ever lived that I truly despise. After 18 years I honestly regret wasting so much of my life here. The warmest and most honest people in Houston County are Black or Latino but
you will be shunned by the establishment local whites for maintaining friendships with non-whites.

I've lived in W/R for 20 years now. It was really safe when I moved here. In the last 3-5 years the crime has really shot up. Many people have moved down here from Macon and brought the drugs and crime with them. That's why we're moving to Byron. ...Read More

This was probably the worst place I ever lived in my life. To be fair, its not all bad, but I would absolutely avoid this place if possible. VERY HOT AND HUMID about 9.5 months per year. Also, lots of bugs (gnats) that fly around and are a constant nuisance. What very brief wi ...Read More
nter occurs here is really nice in comparison to other parts of the country. Night life is non existent and doesn't pick up any where near the city. NO real attractions that are worth mentioning. Dining options are pretty lame as well basically consisting of chain fast food places and other restaurants. One very small positive is that many people are friendly, but I wouldn't say it was significantly more noticeable than many other parts of the country. A REAL POSITIVE though is that its pretty cheap to live here. HOWEVER, ONE MAJOR NEGATIVE is that the crime in this area to include adjoining Macon is ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. There are neighborhoods where you can mostly shield yourself from this, but everyone eventually has to leave the neighborhood and go into town for things. OVERALL, I would AVOID this place if possible. If you have to move here its not the end of the world I guess, but I would absolutely try to find another job, new station if your military, or beg your employer to reconsider your relocation.

I moved from Savannah, GA to Warner Robins, GA a few years ago. While sometimes it is tough to beat the heat, I like the city for its small town appeal.
I suppose it is the family atmosphere I appreciate most about Warner Robins. With a Robins Air Field Base located here there ...Read More
are many families and the city accommodates them. This works well for my family. The community rates an 8 for me. I enjoy the close knit community of Warner Robin's as it reminds me of my home town. The attractions in the city are slim ranking about a 3. There is an Air Force Museum which gets good traffic and if you are willing to take the trip to Macon, GA about 25 minutes away you can visit several attractions located there including a children's museum. Many residents go boating on the river there also.
There is a strip full of local and national chain restaurants in the center of the city so you would not run out of options for places to dine. Though the city is no Mecca for night life there are enough community activities to keep my son and I busy. I do wish there was more to do in the city of Warner Robins but I do not whine about too much. I often visit family members up the road in Atlanta and find plenty to do there.
I have a close circle of friend so Warner Robins works for me we stay connected by creating our own fun at the local parks and our own backyards. Like any city you have to be more careful in some areas versus others. Again the community does watch out for one another and this makes it a little easier.
For any family already living here or planning on relocating research the area. Once here make certain to make connections with other families and co-workers. This will make your living here a lot friendly and homey.

It's sad when a city the size of Warner Robins has a crime rate 87% greater than the national average. Is the "mayor" even thinking about ways to reduce crime or is he just too busy grabbing more land in the county. The police department has had a exodus of officer for as long ...Read

as I can remember and are always short of officers. Has the mayor ever thought about looking into why officers leave for other agencies? Benefits and pay doesn't seem to be the catalyst for the officer exodus so what exactly is the problem with the Warner Robins Police Department?
