Metro Atlanta city guide / Gwinnett County
Loganville, Georgia: where the eastern suburbs reach small town Walton County
Drive east on US 78 past Snellville and the suburbs start to loosen up. Loganville is where that happens: a Main Street with a busy Town Green, big parks, more house for the money than most of Gwinnett, and a city that sits mostly in Walton County with its western edge in Gwinnett. This guide covers downtown and the parks, what homes are selling for, what the county line changes, and how the drive into Atlanta works.
Come as you are. Come on home.
Downtown
A Town Green that does a lot of work.
Loganville began as an agricultural crossroads called Buncombe, was renamed for early settler James Harvie Logan and incorporated in 1887. Today the center of town life is the Town Green on Main Street, rebuilt in 2013 with a pavilion that hosts something most months of the year.
Groovin’ on the Green concerts on the third Friday of each month from May through September, an annual classic car show, the Independence Day celebration and the Christmas parade.
The city’s biggest day of the year. The 2026 festival, on October 17, filled Main Street with more than 175 food, arts and crafts vendors, live music, local dance and theater groups and a kids zone.
A short run of locally owned restaurants, shops and a retro arcade. It is small, and it is the part of Loganville people actually walk.
Parks
Big parks, and a garden worth the drive.
For a city of its size, Loganville has a lot of park land, most of it easy to reach from the neighborhoods.
Bay Creek Park. The largest, about 154 acres, with a 1.5 mile walking trail, tennis and basketball courts, a skate park and an all abilities playground.
Meridian Park and West Walton Park. Meridian’s 24 acres center on a pond with a walking loop of about a mile, and a path connects it to West Walton Park, about 50 acres of ball fields, playgrounds and a picnic pavilion.
Vines Botanical Gardens. About 25 acres of themed gardens, an arboretum and a three and a half acre lake on Oak Grove Road, open daily with no admission fee.
What it costs
More house for the money, in a slower market.
Loganville sits at the outer edge of the eastern suburbs, and the prices show it. Housing runs from older homes near downtown to large subdivisions built over the past few decades, with new construction on the edges of town. The figures below are Redfin’s September 2026 numbers for the City of Loganville.
Price per square foot barely moved while the median fell sharply, so the decline mostly reflects a different mix of homes selling rather than a broad drop in what Loganville homes are worth. Volume fell too, 42 sales in September against 79 a year earlier, and with numbers that small the median can jump around from month to month.
For buyers, the leverage is real. Four in ten listings cut their price and only about one in eight sold above list. Homes priced close to the market still sell in about six weeks.
Two counties
Most of Loganville is in Walton, and part of it is in Gwinnett.
The city sits mostly in western Walton County, with its western edge reaching into Gwinnett. Here the county line decides more about a house than almost anything else.
Schools
Walton County addresses attend Walton County Public Schools, which include Loganville High School. Gwinnett County addresses attend Gwinnett County Public Schools. The district’s own locator gives the assignment for an exact address and school year.
Taxes
Each county sets its own rates, and the City of Loganville bills its own city tax separately. A Walton bill and a Gwinnett bill on similar homes can look quite different.
City limits
Loganville mailing addresses also reach into unincorporated parts of both counties, which changes which city services and rules apply. The county tax record answers the county and city questions in one place.
Getting around
Three state routes meet in the middle of town.
Loganville is car based, and its main roads point in every direction.
US 78, Atlanta Highway
West through Snellville toward Stone Mountain and Atlanta, about 32 miles to downtown, and east about 5 miles to Monroe.
GA 20
Northwest about 10 miles to Lawrenceville and southwest about 15 miles to Conyers.
GA 81
Northeast to Winder and south to Covington.
Rush hour
Westbound traffic on US 78 can stretch a commute considerably. I would drive the route at the hour you would actually make it before deciding.
Taxes
Start with which county.
There is no single Loganville tax rate. The bill depends on the county, whether the home is inside the city and the owner’s exemptions.
Loganville straddles Walton and Gwinnett, and each county sets its own rates. Check which county a parcel sits in first, then work from that county’s latest bill at your purchase price.
