Ok, I was born and raised here and, despite having lived in many other places in Georgia and other states, Augusta will always be home for me. Being from here I can honestly say that, like cities all over the U.S., it has it's beautiful places and it's disgusting places. This vid was amazing quality and captures a lot of the downtown Riverwalk area but Augusta is way bigger than that small amount showed here. The pace here is kinda in the middle, meaning there aren't horrific traffic jams or people being piled on top of each other because of limited living space and it isn't some middle of nowhere country town with 2 restaurants and 3 gas stations and one grocery store. People say it's a retirement town or just somewhere people just move here to work but, it's so much more than that. People here usually take the time to talk to each other when going into a store or restaurant and when someone is in need of help or something, we come together and do all we can to lend a hand. I'll admit that there isn't much to do activity wise since they've taken away so much of the fun things that used to be here, but Augusta is practically an hour or two away from all the places in Georgia that offer those things. It's almost exactly in between Atlanta and Savannah and there are also many places in South Carolina, like Myrtle Beach and Charleston, that aren't more than a couple hours away. So Augusta has the beneficial advantage of having access to many different places without driving 3-4 hours or more. All in all, Augusta should most definitely create more places for people who enjoy doing family activities and things like that but it is still an amazing place to visit or live despite the lack of those things. If u come here and think it's boring, you're mistaken. U just have to know people who know where the action is. Yes, Augusta can be a bit laid back and relaxed but, we don't have cops harassing and shooting innocent people just because of their race and, most people here tend to be less stressed out than the people in bigger cities, so it's all about your perspective really. I love it here even though it can get boring but thankfully I have a very creative mind so I know how to entertain myself. I enjoyed this vid and I would love for there to be more videos made that show all of Augusta's beautiful landscape if possible. Thanks for taking the time to create this because I honestly think Augusta is underrated at times. MUCH LOVE AND INFINITE BLESSINGS TO U MY FRIEND 💖 💖🙏 🙏✌ ✌
I don't live in Augusta anymore, but I was raised there and I'm proud to see my hometown represented well like this; especially in a non-Masters context. Great job and makes me proud of my hometown!
This is great! Augusta is my home town and it's so nice to see it in a positive light. Great work! I want to put out some videos of the towns we visit as travel nurses and this is a great example.
I went through boot camp at Ft. Gordon which is about 8miles from Augusta. Also MP school. I was there for 4 months and i never went to Augusta. I had everything i needed right on Ft. Gordon.
The post is home to the new Cyber Command now and has caused an explosion of growth in and around Grovetown. Its unbelievable. I have lived here since 1983.
Pros: low cost of living, plenty of retail/restaurants, decent amount of entertainment & events, historic city with nice parks and recreation areas including a 111sq mile lake (Clark's Hill Lake), couple hours drive from beaches, mountains, Atlanta, Savannah, Greenville, Columbia, Charleston, lots to do downtown, great hospitals and friendly people, major interstate access (I-20), many job opportunities and economic expansion. Cons: no lack of high crime areas, large homeless population, corruption and lack of true leadership within city/county commission, crumbling infrastructure in certain areas, Columbia County traffic congestion, Richmond County public schools aren't great. Overall, Augusta is a good place to live and raise a family. It's the 2nd largest metro area in Georgia but has a small town feel and charm. Just do your research before moving into a particular area. You can see crime stats by area on the Sheriff Office's website, www.richmondcountysheriffsoffice.com/
I wish I was there with my waif but USA embassy did not give me visa my waif is still there 6 years have bean past all I can do is to see this place again and again rip love.
Guru La did I say it does , but Augusta sucks it’s a city for older people raising kids majority of people moving here , are here for work not the city 😂😂😂😂
Guru La bro I do all the time, you act like people here are so tough what is this Chicago, I literally tell people that everyday so many people hate it here, 😂😂😂😂
Wow! I lived here during my childhood. I understand what the hood is. What I don't understand is why people continue to live in this dead, boring so called City. it's a road to nowhere. It's sad. warm weather almost all year. Is nice. But so does Florida. Unless you have money Augusta GA is not a place to be. It's DEAD. People seem to dry up from a lack of culture, education, and good jobs. Let's not forget excitement. And the southern accent is horrible. It's rare to hear someone say a complete sentence. This say a lot for the school system there. Lifeless.😴🤭👎 Stay on the plane, stay on the train. ( Forget the train, there's no passenger train that stops there) lol. Stay in the car and get on I-95 North and don't look back.
Beautiful city ❤️

I grew up in Augusta. 1962-1990. I loved that city then and miss it.
I don't live in Augusta anymore, but I was raised there and I'm proud to see my hometown represented well like this; especially in a non-Masters context. Great job and makes me proud of my hometown!

Augusta looks huge.
I went through boot camp at Ft. Gordon which is about 8miles from Augusta. Also MP school. I was there for 4 months and i never went to Augusta. I had everything i needed right on Ft. Gordon.

seems more chaotic on the ground!
Hey Can I use a scene from your footage if it's ok with you ?
My Hood Is Right Down The Tracks...Allen Homes Finest...
I'm thinking of moving to Augusta. Can people give me pros and cons?
Pros: low cost of living, plenty of retail/restaurants, decent amount of entertainment & events, historic city with nice parks and recreation areas including a 111sq mile lake (Clark's Hill Lake), couple hours drive from beaches, mountains, Atlanta, Savannah, Greenville, Columbia, Charleston, lots to do downtown, great hospitals and friendly people, major interstate access (I-20), many job opportunities and economic expansion.

Yeah you should know. Look how you turned out..💩💩💩
I AM IN SHOCK, I COULD NOT LIVE HERE, THIS IS DEPRESSING, WHERE ARE THE OFFICE TOWERS ? THE BUSINESS DISTRICT ? PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION ?
More hospitals for a city that size..
North Augusta is better
i’m from the Augusta area and i used to love it but i moved away for 16 years and came back and it’s a shithole. seriously it’s trash
At least we're not Detroit
Or Shitattle WA.
Augusta is a dying city
Maybe you should have stayed away forever..
Don’t forget to ask the mayor about the lawsuits, and spending 6800 dollars on his re-election party at taxpayers expense. The corrupt sheriff
Guys the video is false advertisement go there it does not look good especially this area down town literally right beside the ghetto
Really!!!!!! I was looking at moving to Augusta because I will be hopefully working at the power plant near Waynesboro. Are there any good areas?
Robert Tarrannce I lived in Waynesboro, very pretty, small town, and its only 20 min. To Augusta, once I retire I wouldn’t mind living there.
Robert Tarrannce yeah a ton of good areas. Just not what’s being shown
Guru La did I say it does , but Augusta sucks it’s a city for older people raising kids majority of people moving here , are here for work not the city 😂😂😂😂
Guru La bro I do all the time, you act like people here are so tough what is this Chicago, I literally tell people that everyday so many people hate it here, 😂😂😂😂

Bless your heart
It's all rundown and raggety
Your life is so exciting now you wrote a novel on a TH-cam video. I’ll applaud you silently. Stick 95 North up your fat ass!
Thank God you did.
Well I guess after you left it was less trash to haul away..
