Green Acres sets an easygoing pace with shady streets, generous yards, and a close-to-everything location in Albany. Residents enjoy quick errands along Dawson Road and Westover Boulevard, plus weekend outings to beloved local attractions like the trails and BMX track at Chehaw Park & Zoo, whose wild residents are just minutes away at the region’s conservation-focused destination. Families and science fans are equally drawn to the riverside exhibits at the Flint RiverQuarium, a window into the Flint River’s unique ecosystem and a favorite for field trips and date nights alike.
Public schools serving the area include Green Acres Elementary, Merry Acres Middle, and Westover High, all part of the broader educational network in Dougherty County. For higher education, Albany State University brings lectures, arts programming, and Golden Rams athletics to town. Healthcare needs are covered by Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, the area’s major medical center with extensive specialty care.
