Forsyth County is the wealthiest county in the state of Georgia and one of the wealthiest and fastest-growing in the United States. It sits on the west shores of stunning Lake Lanier, Georgia’s largest reservoir and home to luxurious lakefront properties.
But as seems to be the case wherever such luxury abounds, there is another side to the story. Even in the counties surrounding Lake Lanier, there is poverty housing. Now, the Lanier Fuller Center for Housing has formed to help those with means offer a hand up to those in need of decent, affordable housing.
