If you're looking for a place to spend your golden years doing water aerobics and playing canasta, a new study says Snellville may be the place for you.
Snellville was rated one of the top places to retire in Georgia by financial website SmartAsset in a new study, according to a city press release.

The study determined its top retirement locations by evaluating tax rates; the number of doctors’ offices, recreation centers and retirement centers per 1,000 residents; and the percentage of seniors in the total population.
Snellville ranked sixth statewide. Its population is already 17.1 percent seniors — people 65 and older — and there are 7.9 doctor's offices and 0.5 retirement centers per 1,000 people. Read the full study here.
Snellville also received the county's top rank in SmartAsset's study last year. The city dropped a spot in its statewide ranking this year.
Cumming in Forsyth County was Georgia’s top ranked city.
