Chicopee Village
Neighborhood in Gainesville, Georgia
Hall County 30504
Historic mill village with an active and thriving community
Johnson & Johnson hired a landscape architect to design the village, creating a community that blended easy access to nearby workplaces with manicured green spaces. The company also built around 250 homes for the community, and many of these century-old homes have been preserved and renovated. Trees dot residential streets lined with these historic homes along with more contemporary bungalows and cottages, all featuring backyards with enough space for children to play or for a small garden. Home prices are lower than the Gainesville average, ranging from $130,000 to $290,000 depending on the size of the property and the number of rooms.
