Living in Auburn-Opelika
The high quality of life in the Auburn-Opelika area continues to draw prospective homebuyers looking for a place that really has it all. This eastern Alabama college community features everything from outdoor recreation and culture to top public school systems, modern healthcare and a dynamic business sector. And there is always something going on for the entire family to enjoy with various community events and happenings at Auburn University.
The real estate market in Auburn-Opelika is diverse and growing. Updated homes built in the 1950s and ‘60s are successfully fused with new construction featuring elegantly appointed estates. The community’s residential area is developing more and more each day, with the addition of such ongoing projects as the large-scale National Village, along with the Northtowne and Cannon Gate subdivisions in Opelika.
There are also plenty of opportunities for renters. Auburn-Opelika offers a variety of rental properties and apartment complexes for those not in the market to purchase a home. Plus, just minutes from the university campus are options for off-campus student living. Developments, such as the Garden District and Creekside of Auburn, provide one-bedroom apartments and up to five-bedroom homes within a modern community fit for student living.
With all of this, it is no wonder the area has been recognized among the finest places to live in the U.S. In fact, the Auburn metropoiltan statistical area has earned recognition by Expansion Management magazine as being one of “America’s 50 Hottest Cities,” and, most recently, was named among the Best Places to Live (2009) by U.S. News & World Report.
