Snellville’s proximity to Atlanta has made it one of the fastest-growing cities in Gwinnett County. Located 25 miles from downtown Atlanta, Snellville is home to 22,000 people. It still retains its close-knit feel with multiple community events, including a farmers’ market and summer concert series. “Snellville is a wonderful place to grow your family,” says Angie Epstein, a real estate specialist with Virtual Properties Realty, who lived in Snellville for 22 years. “The schools are top ranked in the state. There’s plenty of dining and retail in the area. It’s a great hometown community with affordable housing.”
Scenic Highway serves as a hub for shopping and dining
Residents have access to plenty of well-recognized chains along Scenic Highway, including Publix, Target, and Home Depot. For dining out, Provino’s is a local favorite for Italian fare and complimentary garlic knots. “Snellville has everything you need as far as shopping and restaurants. We have Chili’s, Applebee’s, Red Lobster,” says Rachel Holland, a Realtor with EXP Realty, who lives in Snellville. “It’s got a suburban feel, but you’ve got some of the city issues like traffic. The traffic is bad because the population has grown so quickly, and a lot of the arteries are two-lane roads.”
Publix is one of the popular options for the locals of Snellville to go grocery shopping at.
Poblanos Mexican restaurant is one of the most popular restaurants in Snellville.

Towne Green is the hot spot for entertainment
Snellville’s Towne Green, a green space in front of City Hall on Main Street, is the site of multiple community events throughout the year. During summer, residents grab lawn chairs and blankets and head to Live on the Lawn, a monthly concert series featuring tribute and cover bands. Snellville Beach Blast brings the beach to central Georgia every May, transforming the Towne Green with 70 tons of sand.
Snellville Farmers Market offers fresh local produce, handmade crafts and artisan food on Saturdays from June through September. Food Truck Friday showcases culinary variety, from Vietnamese street food and lobster dogs to cheesesteaks and funnel cakes. The event is held on the first Friday of the month from June to October.
The Live on the Lawn Concert Series in Snellville features local artist from around the area.

Snellville’s got curb appeal
Homes in Snellville come in a variety of styles including ranch houses, split-levels, Cape Cods and contemporary homes with two-car garages. Older properties tend to be fairly spaced out with mature tree growth, while newer homes rest on more compact lots and commonly feature sidewalk-lined streets. “It’s an established area,” Epstein says. “Most of the homes were built in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. There are pockets of newer subdivisions.”
The average sales price hovers around $400,000. A vintage three-bedroom could be found for $350,000, while a recently constructed five-bedroom might sell for $500,000. “It’s a strong market,” Holland says. “Things usually sell in less than a month.”
In Snellville, there are ranch-style homes with decently-large properties.
Some older split-level homes can be a great place to start a family in Snellville.

Residents hop on U.S. Route 78 to get to Atlanta
U.S. Route 78 cuts through Snellville, making for an easy 25-mile commute west to downtown Atlanta. “We’re close enough to go to the city anytime we want to, but we are far enough away that we don’t have that frantic pace,” Holland says. The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is about 40 miles away along the same stretch of road. Piedmont Eastside Medical Center, a 310-bed hospital, is located on Fountain Drive.
