What it’s like
The place. Allenhurst is a very small city in Long County, Georgia, where people know the neighbors by name and the pace is quiet. Winters are mild, with little or no snow, and summers run hot. The year is wet, with plenty of rain, so lawns and gardens rarely go thirsty. Homes cost less than in many parts of the country, and renting is also within reach for many households.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, in shops, or in the building trades. Across Long County, the largest workplaces include Long County Schools and Excelsior Ambulance Service. The county has lost a few jobs over the past year, and unemployment is a little lower than it was a year ago. Getting to work takes a fair stretch of time for the typical commuter, and only a small number of people work from home.
Things to do. For history and learning, a short drive away you will find Dorchester Academy, a museum, and the Woodmanston Site, an archaeological site. For a longer outing, Fort McAllister is a fort that can be reached by car, and Harris Neck National Wildlife Refuge is a protected area where visitors can spend a day outdoors. The surrounding country is cut through by many rivers and creeks, which gives the area a green, watery feel.
