Lithonia Overview

Proudly bearing the slogan 'the city of granite', Lithonia is a small metro region located in the eastern end of DeKalb County. Home to a variety of residents and considered part of the greater Atlanta area, this Georgia destination has much to offer.

What is the history of Lithonia?

Home to a large granite mine, Lithonia built its reputation early on the stone, leading to a prominent stop by the Atlanta-Augusta Railroad in 1845. A Masonic lodge and a number of churches were established by the early 1900s, and the famed Lithonia Lighting Company, one of the largest manufacturers of lighting fixtures in the nation, was also established in the city. Today, Lithonia remains a proud testament to the staying power of hard work and even harder minerals.

How is the weather in Lithonia?

Winters in Georgia are generally mild, making it an excellent place for retired seniors tired of the snow, and summers are highlighted by hot temps and increased attendance at local swimming holes. Spring is often highlighted by rain, and the fall is an explosion of leaf colors and crisp, comfortable nights.

How do I get around town?

Most residents of apartments in Lithonia own at least one car or truck, although the MARTA System offers bus service to Atlanta and beyond. The capital city also lays claim to the largest airport in the vicinity, with daily domestic and international flights readily available. Rail service is in short supply throughout Lithonia.

What is the Lithonia commute like?

The East Expressway, also known as I-20, acts as the primary roadway into and around the city, with both Conyers and Center Street competing as the main through fares through the center of the city. Those commuting to Atlanta can expect typical daily delays, given the large amount of vehicles entering and leaving the job market, especially during the primary morning and afternoon hours.

What are the local media outlets?

A majority of the print news comes from Atlanta, with the 'Lithonia Observer' closing its doors in the 1980s. Broadcast television offers most of the typical major networks, such as NBC and CBS, while radio runs the gamut from country to modern rock, gospel to talk radio.

Why live in Lithonia, GA?

A working class city with history to spare, Lithonia is home to about 2,000 residents, making it an ideal homestead for those eager to connect with a relaxed pace and small town ambiance. Schools in the area consistently gain high marks, and for being a relatively small city Lithonia boasts an impressive number of public park space. All in all, this Georgia locale is an excellent option for families and working-class singles alike.

What Lithonia landmarks should I see?

History buffs will find much to celebrate in Lithonia, with The Seminary dating back to the 1800s and the Lithonia-Davidson Library a staple of the main drag since the 1940s. The Lithonia Women's Club is another structure well worth discovering.

What is there to do around Lithonia?

Shop for bargains at the Mall at Stonecrest, or get into the swing of things with a few rounds at the Mystery Valley Golf Course, both convenient to a number of Lithonia apartments for rent. Rock Chapel Park is an excellent place to relax with a book or enjoy a game of frisbee, and no Lithonia experience is complete without sampling the vegetarian fare at the Green Love Kitchen.

Any annual festivals or Lithonia events to know?

Holidays take on an added importance in the city, with Halloween and July 4th both offering parades and crafts. The Canine and Kids Carnival combines two of our favorite things, drawing large crowds and boasting an impressive number of 4-legged friends. Nearby Atlanta also, of course, offers a wide array of music fests and other artistic gatherings.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Hit the open road and explore some of the many nature centers that Georgia has to offer, or escape to the mountains of North Carolina for a weekend of camping, fishing and hiking. South Carolina's scenic coast is an excellent getaway, flush with antique shops and even NASCAR races, while Atlanta proper is loaded with museums, world-class restaurants and nightlife options.

Where is the best place to move in Lithonia?

Whether you are in the market for a cozy and economic one-bedroom Lithonia apartment, complete with onsite amenities such as gym and reserved parking, or are more interested in a spacious 4-bedroom rental close to the commuting roadways to the Atlanta job market, odds are good the ideal Lithonia rental is out there waiting to make your acquaintance. So why let another day go by without a new place to call home in the Peach State? Start your search today and enjoy all that Georgia has to offer!
