Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say the Birmingham folks are driving up the prices. I think it is the demand in general. You may have a point with the baby boomer generation, but there are plenty of the less afluent from that generation as well as afluent. Just a large population in both categories. Atlanta has one of the largest growing populations and jobs markets with good salaries of anywhere in the U.S. We will all probably agree that Lake Martin is one of the major "Jewels of the South". Quality brings demand. It is also well recognized beyond the South that Lake Martin is one of the premiere retirement sites in the U.S. Low taxes along with friendly people will bring them in. Only thing lacking for some in the Lake Marin immediate area is a sufficient base of restaurants, shopping and non-lake related entertainment. Fortunately or unfortunately that will come with the money influx. The booming auto industry in Alabama (U.S.'s future Auto Mfg. capital) is going to bring a higher demand from recreational seekers. It might be said that "we ain't seen nothing yet".

Before I get flamed by anyone, this in not necessarly my desire but only my honest personal opinion. Will enjoy hearing others opinion/perspective either in agreement or disagreement.
