Norcross Georgia is a city with a lot of history and for that reason it is a great place to live. You and your family will love it here. There is a real community spirit and people all seem to know each other in this town of around 9,000 people. But that’s not to say that the city is sleepy. There is always plenty to do here and the city’s chamber of commerce has a great plan that has been attracting tourists and visitors for quite some time. This vibrancy has also had a profound effect on the real estate community here.

The City of Norcross is Gwinnett County's second oldest city and has played many roles in local history and development. It was founded as a resort town for wealthy Atlantans by J. J. Thrasher, who named the city for his good friend Jonathan Norcross, a former Mayor of Atlanta.

All sections of the city are connected to the downtown core by a network of sidewalks. At any time of the day, you will find walkers and joggers, mothers and fathers strolling with their small children, and even older citizens utilizing this community asset. The sidewalk network leads to or through our parks: Thrasher, Rossie Brundage, Lions Club, and Betty Mauldin. These amenities lend a restful, unique flavor to the city by providing a relaxed atmosphere for family and community outings.
