Although small compared to other cities, Stockbridge is the largest city in Henry county with the population estimated to be now over 20,000. You could also mention that Stockbridge, Georgia has 4 great parks that you can use, complete with playground areas, and baseball or tennis courts. The 4 parks combined with a (relatively) low population will mean that at least you can enjoy the parks and not be wrestling with other people when you go out for a walk.

Admittedly when it comes to schooling for your children, there aren’t that many schools within Stockbridge. If your children are of middle school age, then the decision as to which one of the Stockbridge homes you buy considering school location isn’t so critical as there is only one middle school in Stockbridge. But the lack of schools doesn’t mean that the standard of schooling is low.

Saying that though, due to the increasing attraction of Stockbridge, Georgia as a place to live it is expected that the number of schools available in the area will increase dramatically in the near future to cope with the increase in the population.
