Brews, burgers and Blackbeard’s
Ledo Road has two coffee shops in Morning Café and Elements Coffee Company, which harvests its own pure honey from a local apiary. Blackbeard’s is the local seafood and barbecue joint that serves authentic grits and farm-raised catfish, while Wingbox specializes in fried wings, smash burgers and Philly cheesesteaks. Besides local chain restaurants such as Jack’s Family Restaurant and Mellow Mushroom, Pecan Grove also has a handful of grocery stores including Walmart, Dollar General and Flash Foods.

Loop around Liberty Expressway
Centered around the highway interchange, Pecan Grove residents experience frequent noise pollution thanks to close proximity to Highways 82 and 19. Residents will need to be car-dependent as the Albany Transit System does not have routes to Pecan Grove, but there is enough open space for limited bike travel. The closest 24-hour emergency care is 3 miles away at Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, while the nearest commercial airport is 8 miles south at Southwest Georgia.Environmental concerns
Thunderstorms are common around the area, with the parks surrounding Kinchafoonee Creek and Ken Gardens Pond most at risk of flooding. The CAP index does indicate a higher risk of property crimes such as burglaries and larcenies, but that’s more due to the high crime found in Albany. “It’s a safe community,” Terrie says. “We have a few minor crimes, but ugly stuff does not come from this side of town.”Creek fishing, baseball and go-karting
Conveniently located next to Kinchafoonee Creek, residents can often be found boating and fishing in the 90-mile body of water. Kayaks and canoes can be reserved from Up The Creek, a local outdoor business that also offers campgrounds and cabin rentals. Baseball games are held at the local field in Ken Gardens Sports Complex, which also has its own park and fishing pond. Even more activities await at the local All American Fun Park, which includes a quarter-mile go-kart track, two miniature golf courses and 16 bowling lanes.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
