    Brings back so many childhood memories. I rode the city bus and or walked from Pleasant Hill to East Macon every school day.

    The chit-chat is annoying. Why aren't you pointing out historical sites? And castles? REALLY? Has she ever seen churches before? Macon is a great city, downtown especially. Yes there is crime, but isn't that true everywhere?

    I love Macon. The history, architecture, arts and music are amazing. As with any city, there are issues. However, all things considered, proud to call Macon... home.

    I miss Macon. Me and my family used to live in Lizella and we'd go into Macon often. We rarely went into the historic areas though and I wish we had. I'd love to be able to explore downtown Macon as an adult.

    I have my heart set on moving to Georgia!! I was trying to move to Florida last year, but couldn’t find a house. Anyway, I heard of the insurance issue they’re having down there. Don’t ever cry over spill milk, y’all! 😊

    Macon wasn't burned to the ground during the civil war, General Sherman ignored the city so he could focus on nearby Milledgeville, which was Georgia's capitol at the time. After capturing Milledgeville, Sherman continued on to Savannah.

    In 2017 we stopped at a gas station in Macon, there was an ‘87 Cutlass circling the parking lot. The female on the passenger side was trying to talk to my brother. Long story short, we encountered an old skool / low budget pimp…

      We just moved back to Macon from Canton. The cost of living is much more affordable than living around Atlanta, and as folks have said the crime is just like in any city, watch yourself and stay conscious of your surroundings.
