The Orchard Apartments is a low-income senior community with small complexes off Meadow Drive and Orchard Circle in Cumming. The one- and two-bedroom single-story apartments have been one of the only reliable sources of affordable housing for low-income seniors in the city since their construction in 1981 and 1985. - photo by Brian Paglia
