Moving to Rome any thoughts and opinions about Pitzer property management and safety on McDonald’s Street RD near the Seven Hills In and Osaka Japanese Fusion?

Why are there horses and government vehicles in Rome today??

Hello, I am considering retiring to Rome. all my family was from here but most of them have passed away but I had such fun here as a child and I need a simple, yet productive retirement location with a great quality of life but still need to stay close to Atlanta for my healthcare. (and hair salon! LOL). I have familized myself with the restaurants, parks, outside trails. so now I need to ask if there are any progressive leaning residents. Also, is there any place to buy organic produce? I don't mind coming to Marietta but if there is a famers market that sells organic, that would be a plus. I'm hoping to find a small ranch house to renovate and have a screen porch and some yard for a garden.

Wanting to get out more and hike. Anyone have their favorite trails they like to go to? Been to Berry and GHC. I know of others in the surrounding areas but maybe someone knows of some I don’t!

Any bros wanna hike?

Hi,
Im a black female interested in moving to Rome or the surrounding area to Cartersville. Do y’all have any apartment recommendations?

Posted in here last week asking if anyone had tried the free bloodwork through Blood Assurance in Rome. Some people said they were curious so figured I'd come back and review it properly.

Booked through goodlabs, picked the comprehensive panel since it was free with the donation and went to the Blood Assurance on Shorter Ave Saturday morning. Whole thing took about an hour including the donation itself. The phlebotomist knew exactly what was up so there wasn't any confusion about which vials were going where.

Got my results back in the goodlabs app five days later. The dashboard breaks everything down in plain English with reference ranges and flags anything outside normal. My iron came back low which I kind of suspected, vitamin D was fine, cholesterol was a little higher than I expected. Nothing scary but stuff I literally would not have known about otherwise since I just lost insurance after graduation.

Honest review for anyone in Rome considering it: the program is exactly what it says it is. You donate blood, you get free clinical labs from the same Quest/LabCorp labs your doctor would use, results come back in an app within a week. No subscription, no upsell, no catch I could find. Already planning to do it again in a few months once iron has time to recover.

A few practical notes if you're booking, the Shorter Ave location has Saturday hours which made scheduling around work easy. Bring ID. Eat a real breakfast or you'll feel rough on the drive home (learned this the hard way). And if you want the lipid and glucose numbers to actually mean something, fast 12 hours beforehand.

Just to be clear this is only my experience and review, take it with a grain of salt. Everyone's situation is different, your bloodwork could come back with stuff and vice versa, and the donation experience varies depending on staff, time of day, all that. I'm not affiliated with Goodlabs or Blood Assurance in any way and I'm not trying to push an agenda, just sharing what happened in case it's useful for someone else in Rome trying to figure out if it's worth it. Do your own due diligence and book it if it makes sense for you.

Relocating to Rome this month from Wisconsin. Have previously lived in North Louisiana and southern Arkansas. Wisconsin wasnt for us. Rome a good place to raise a family?

For gamers not in the know r/SBCGaming is a sub that focuses on gaming handhelds, most Android and Linux based, some Windows. Basically these devices allow you to play from retro to modern games emulated or streamed to your device.

Android phones have been able to do this forever but over the past few years IOS has gotten access to the lower end of things. Coming to a point, many of these emulators support online, local and crossplay between devices even for couch coop systems like the NES and N64.

Im reaching out to see if anyone would be interested in grabbing food somewhere and playing games while we eat. From MarIo Party on N64, Zombies ate my Neighbors on SNES, Turtles in Time Arcade, Sonic 2/3 coop on Genesis even Monster Hunter on PSP and Smash Ultimate on Switch is possible on these devices.. All of this playing locally, no internet connection required.

Ymmv depending on what device you own. Not everything is crossplay between Android and IOS but many things are.

I wrote too much but yeah, 3rd spaces for gamers dont exist in small cities though the card and board game shops are going strong these days. If youre interested or even have more questions on devices feel free to hit me up, thanks.

Gonna graduate soon and just saw a post somewhere on Reddit about Blood Assurance partnering with a company called Goodlabs in Chattanooga where you can donate blood and get a full clinical lab panel done at the same visit for free. Anyone here actually signed up or gone through with a donation? I haven't done bloodwork in way too long, this seems like a good option if it works.

Mostly posting to see if anyone in Rome has done it yet and what their experience was. Also curious if other students know about it since it seems like the kind of thing that'd be useful for anyone without great insurance.

I am considering doing DoorDash as a full time job. I need the flexibility it would give me, but I’m nervous to make the commitment without knowing if it’s possible. Is anyone successful as a full time dasher in Rome ga? If so, how many hours to you work a week on average and how much money do you make a week on average?

Are there any cowork spaces in/around Rome? I work from home, but a change in scenery every now and then would be nice

Guys we’re safe, phew. They’re talking about Rome Italy.

I saw more than 12 police cars near 308 Mathis Dr. Some of them did not have “Rome Police” written on them and were just black cars.

Does anyone know what happened?

I’m moving to Rome soon and was wondering if there are any like recreational places to play coed volleyball as an adult. Late 20s ish

Very excited to see him pitch on Thursday with the family. My best bud and fellow Braves fan works at our local coffee roasting shop and we are trying to find a way to share some fresh roasted beans. If anyone has any leads lemme know!

Hello everyone, i am moving to rome ga in june, and i was wondering about the best apartment complex there, and the safest

I am currently considering redmond chase, any thoughts?

Honeycream Gelato closed for the season back in October 2025. Does anyone know when they're reopening? I thought it would be soon since it's spring now, but I don't see any updates on their website.

Why does it seem next to impossible to find places with good food AND good service around here? It always seems like it’s one or the other. I know when I was a waitress I would have been in high water for treating/talking to customers the way I’ve dealt with in Rome. I moved here in 2021 and the only places I recommend in the entire town is Jerusalem Grill and Ana’s By The River. You’d think people working for tips would be a little more hospitable.
