Duluth, Georgia offers a lively, walkable downtown with restaurants, breweries, galleries and regular events, plus a friendly suburban vibe and plenty of short‑term housing options that make multi‑week stays comfortable and interesting.
It’s a short drive to Atlanta (about 25 miles) for major museums, pro sports and an international airport, and roughly 70 miles from Athens’s college‑town music and dining scene — so you get big‑city options nearby while enjoying a quieter home base.
