Irondale, GA 279 Apartments for Rent

"I'm a Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech, and a hell of an engineer / A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, hell of an engineer." -- Georgia Tech

Irondale, Georgia is one of the few cities in the United States that doesn't have a past. In fact, no matter how much you look up about this city, you're going to draw blanks each and every time. But think about it -- is it really necessary to have a past to be relevant in the present? I think that was supposed come across all philosophical, but instead I've just confused myself and I'm sure you're scratching your head too, so I'll accept the embarrassment and bow out now. I will say though that it is pretty weird for a town not to have a past (it might just be because it is a Census Designated Town, so it was never "officially established") or it could be a conspiracy in which the government / Illuminati wiped the historical data off of their space computers. I really should have stopped at the last paragraph.

Living in the City that Never Exist

Turns out that there isn't much to do here. In fact, shopping might prove a little difficult as most shops are located outside of the city. There are no malls or shopping centers either, so your credit cards won't get much action. However, if you are just dying to swipe your cards until the numbers come off, you can travel east, just to the outskirts of the city and get your shopping fix at Bonanza Shopping Center or Lovejoy Station Shopping Center.

Eat Out

Most of the restaurants in this area are located along Tara Boulevard, so the city is pretty free of eateries. Should you choose to travel towards the 19 AKA Tara Blvd., stop into Back Yard BBQ, China Wok or II Dua Vietnamese Restaurant.

Fish, Swim or Look

Irondale is home to Beaver Lake and several small ponds. Although they aren't the most fish packed waterways around, they are quite nice to look at or ride on in a small boat or canoe. If you are looking for some fish however, you may way to travel a little east to Shamrock Lake or south to Club Lake.

Visit Your Neighbors

If you like being out and about, you may find yourself getting on the freeway more often than not. Should you choose to venture outside of the place without a past, head up to Jonesboro for a meal or to play a few rounds of golf.
