What is crazy is that Macon has all that music history and the Music Museum still shut down.
@LivingInMiddleGeorgiaАй бұрын
It really is surprising! Macon has such a rich musical heritage, and it would be great to see the museum open up again to celebrate that history.

Is it a safe area? I am considering it as one of the places I'd like to move with my husband and children. I love GA and lived in St. Mary's and Sugar Hill when I was younger. And do you know good the quality of the elementary school and middle school education is? Anywhere in the city you'd recommend avoiding moving to?

Born there , grew up there, and glad i dont live there anymore. Back during the 1980s, some wealthy japanese investors wanted to build a massive amusement theme park based on the cherry blossom which is extremely popular in japanese culture. The city council members blocked that from happening. It wouldve been on the same scale as Six Flags in atlanta. That wouldve brought so many more businesses and industry into macon. The city politics for decades is the reason why macon is nothing.

You forgot Sex and the City, The Color Purple, and Living Single as shows & movies that reference Macon.

This guy has lost his mind. He's not being completely truthful. Macon is a dump. It's dangerous, and crime infested. It almost went bankrupt a few years back and they had to consolidate. I was born there in 1969 and left in 1994. I've been back a few times, and it's NEVER gotten better. South Macon is a massive, many square miles area of nothing but blight and poverty. Lester Miller is doing a great job as Mayor, but the place isn't going to be fixed in 4 years. Calling Macon a dump is being nice.

There are like five or six of them. You always know they're in town because their driveway is always piled up with cars. The sad part is that the owner of that place is supposedly a banker. Another person told us that it's just how Macon people act. This video shows us a very different Macon from what we expected.

Macon, Georgia is a beautiful, arty town with a remarkable caring community. Our reputation for crime is a myth perpetuated by surrounding, less progressive, counties. U S Bureau of Statistics lists Warner Robins as #1 per capita for violent crime in Georgia & #12 general crime. Macon didn't make either on the Top 15 list.
