Methodology. We ranked 149 towns of 2,500–10,000 people in Georgia (2020 Census population; towns with 2,500+ people have pages so far). Lifestyle measures are The Town Files lifestyle rankings, built from federal demographic, school, crime and housing data (2025), shown as percentiles. The combined score is the average of the percentiles shown for each town; a town must be above the middle on every one. Only towns better than 60% of their peers on this measure qualify, so lists can be shorter than 25. Sources:
