While Macon was socially conservative for a long time, that has changed dramatically over the past couple of decades. From what I can tell, the newer generations are quite liberal regarding social issues. Macon has always been a city. In fact, it was a planned city, and, like most cities, Macon is pretty liberal on economic issues.
Although it's in the middle of a ferocious forest (causing serious allergy problems for most people), and while the air is pretty bad (mostly due to a large paper mill), Macon has some of the best water in the United States, and it is now, without question, a Democratic stronghold in Georgia. It's also becoming more liberal, politically, year after year.
Macon is my home, and I love it, but I still see room for improvement.
