Ft Gordon GA - SouthEastern U.S

Anyone else been to Ft. Gordon GA, in Augusta?

I have been there but for tech school. DH is looking at taking a job there, and wanted opinions of who liked it there and what you like/ dislike about the area.

My biggest worry is going and having no friends.

11-16-2006, 04:32 PM

see i loved it when I was there.

Tims reason for not wanting to go is that he doesn't want to wear blues

Holy Hannah!! a post about Ft. Gordon!!!

We live here also and love it! The houses are much cheaper, everyone is friendlier AND there are no ships!!!!

It is not a military town which is nice also.

Alex did his AIT there...so I've been down there a couple of times...but we didn't like it that much!

Well, I'll be the different one and say I really don't like it here. We've been here two years and bought a house off post. The people have been rude, it's been impossible finding a job that pays above $6 an hour, after a few months you've done everything there is to do, all the trees make me feel so boxed in, the base is extremely small....I dunno, it just hasn't been my kind of place. The only real pluses have been that Atlanta is only about two hours away(so we've spent a lot of time out there) and that we bought a wonderful house in a great neighborhood.
