    "The traffic is more congested in the mornings and after school /work, but is nothing compared to Madison and Huntsville. I work in Huntsville so it takes about 40 minutes in good driving conditions. As far as staying in Athens goes, I find that it's easy to get around and everything is pretty convenient. "

    "The only way to get around in my town is by car. I do see a few brave souls who walk or ride bikes but it is dangerous because there are no sidewalks and the street lanes are narrow. Athens city counsel needs to address this because Athens is growing. 2 great colleges and Steelcase and Toyota makes it a popular town for families of all ages. Sidewalks and wider lanes would lift moods and reduce bellies."
