Featuring some of the most highly rated public schools in the state, Oconee County is made up of several towns interconnected by rolling hills and openfarmland. A rapidly growing, tight knit community, it is a pleasant reflection of days gone by. Your local baker may be your neighbor and Friday nights are still spent at the local high school football game cheering on the team. A perfect place to get a generous home on a proportionate lot, Oconee features many planned communities and neighborhoods. A great place to consider new construction, Oconee has something for everyone and is the stuff the American Dream is made of.
