Gainesville, Georgia is nice. Lake Sidney Lanier is the most
used Corp of Engineers lake in America and has been over 30 years
because it is around 50 miles from Atlanta. Gainesville is considered
the poultry processing capital of the US. The population of the area
grew 40% between 1991 and 2001. They estimate there are over 50,000
illegal Mexican aliens presently in the area. In 2003 Georgia is considered
the number one destination of illegal Mexican aliens in US and Gainesville
has at times been the number one destination in Georgia. This should be
everything you're looking for.
