    I was born, raised and still live in Covington. It's changed quite a bit in the past 40 years. It's grown but not too fast and has a very deep history. Also, you passed a bunch of movie/tv show landmarks. Covington is one of the most filmed in areas in Georgia with movie studios minutes from the square. Do your research and let people know that it's likely they will run into filming around town.

Covington has created a place in our hearts. We love the down home hallmark Christmas movie feel lol We’re in our late 20s with 2 little ones and it’s a great place to raise a family. it’s always beautiful here in Christmas for sure. Our downtown area is one of the most beautiful downtown areas I’ve been to for a small town feel. Give it a visit

    Covington is my home town, still have family there so I visit often. I moved to north Georgia 20 years ago when my husband's job relocated. Unfortunately Covington is not the small, rural, crime free town I grew up in. The Atlanta spread down I-20 & housing boom changed our little town in the early 2000's. You can still see pieces of what Covington once was in the square with the historic buildings.

    I moved here in Covington in 2018. I’m not sure if this video is a good depiction of what Covington really is because most people don’t go down to the historic district for shopping or enjoyment. Dogwood Avenue has a very good shopping center with TJ Maxx, homegoods, etc. but this historic area really caters to people who have probably lived here most of the lives. Also blacks really don’t shop here in this area. We go down for special events maybe but this isn’t really a good depiction of what Covington really is.
