Living In Dover

If you spend one day in Dover, you'll see evidence everywhere of our high quality of life. Housing options on
tree-lined streets include historic homes, newly developed neighborhoods, modern apartments and condominiums — all in safe locales and at prices well below those in nearby metropolitan areas.

Dover City Park bustles with recreational options for youth and adults. Inviting downtown activities include festivals and a market where residents buy and sell fresh-cut flowers and vegetables. Union Country Club and our local YMCA are among the many opportunities for recreation and social activities.

Our schools are highly respected, and a nearby university campus and vocational training center provide additional education opportunity beyond high school. Community health is centered at Union Hospital, with a staff of over 300 physicians.



After college we moved to Atlanta to begin our careers. When it was time to start a family we knew we wanted a small town with a quality emphasis. Dover won out over Jackson and Hudson because of the great school district and excellent community values. We love it here in Dover.
