Do you get more space in Alpharetta or Canton?

Canton generally offers larger lots for a comparable budget than Alpharetta, since Fulton County's Alpharetta carries higher land costs tied to its job centers and school districts, while Cherokee County's Canton has more room to build on larger parcels. That's a general pattern rather than a guarantee for every specific property, since both towns include exceptions in either direction. Comparing actual listings and recent closings in each town is the way to see what that difference looks like for a real budget.
