Hi Sarah,
have lived in England myself (ELY Cambridgshire) before I came to Augusta GA 5 years ago,
We love it hear.
We decided to move to Columbia County just outside of Augusta City, due to the reputation of the schools here.
The weather is great all year round, the cost of living is very good. This area offers so much and you are within about 2 hours of the beach, of the mountains and of Atlanta, if you want a mega million city for a change.
Talking about mega million city:
Augusta and the Central Savannah Area (CSRA) offers plenty of opportunity for every day living, but still has a small town flair. I feel very comfortable and much safer than in Europe, but if you want to know about crime, the sherriffs offices of Columbia county and Richmond County have web sites where you can look that up.
Also there is a website where you can compare your current place with the one you are planning to move to.
Realtor. com might have that link, but I am not sure.
What exactly are you looking for. Let me know, and I might be able to point you in the right direction. Hope that helps a little bit.
