I've been in Atlanta since 2000. I have a small house in unincorporated Decatur paid for. My business is thriving. But yes the traffic can be bad. Crime depends upon who and where you kicking it. In other words don't hang around folks that behave badly. If Black, ATLANTA is a great place to start a business because the feedback my business receives is that my my Black customers love supporting black businesses.
OKAY, THAT IS GREAT BECAUSE THERE ARE SOME EVIL A**S PEOPLE IN ATLANTA THAT HATE PROSPERITY...
Yes, it's certainly a magnet for Blacks.
@@NOTHOTlanta It is an Magnet for Blacks.KEEP IN MIND THERE HAVE BEEN MANY BLACKS THAT HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES IN ATLANTA,GEORGIA. THERE IS NO NEED TO NOT MENTION THIS ABOUT ATLANTA. IT IS NOT THE CITY OF COURSE< BUT THE EVIL JEALOUS A**S IN ATLANTA..
@@kamaradice9957 atlanta evil city
so whats up with decatur i heard a few jokes about it on wild and out its sounds lame of me its just if you mention west side la or watts la i know what that could mean im looking to buy soon as it fits my life style and decatur has great deals is it bad or some parts ivknow every where has their good and bad so im open please chat with me for a sec if you dont mind
I lived in Atlanta for 18 years and although I hated the traffic, I LOVED the city and all that it has to offer people of all races, colors, ages, religions, and creeds. The most beautiful way to experience the 100,000+ trees is to go to the top of Stone Mountain and take a look around. It's free to climb the mountain yourself or you can pay a nominal fee to ride the trolley to the top! It's an experience you will never forget!!!
thanks
I'm over Atlanta. I live in El Paso, TX now.
Please I want to move to Atlanta can help me with some advice please
@@elvisfru6363 Don't. That's the best advice.
@@elvisfru6363 If that’s what you feel in your heart and soul and it brings you joy every time you manifest in it then go for it. You can make it happen
Lol didn't know their houses in Atlanta were expensive I'm in South Carolina I got a townhouse for a 100k and it's nice. My mortgage is $600 a month 🌩️
I’m from SC too, I’m planning on going to ATL tech since it’s closer and diesel tech program is great and shit. But like I thought this shit was cheap, shit actually looks pretty expensive goddamn. I don’t really know how bad it is in SC cause I ain’t live on my own yet but what the hell man 😂but ay prolly worth it
100k can't buy anything in my state heck I'm moving.
How is it living in SC and what are the best cities? People have tried to tell me to stay away from SC due to racism but it’s in GA as well so hey!!
What city you live in South Carolina? Do you live an hour or more away from.a major city?
I hear that SC is not really a prosperous place like Atl Ga..I hear the crime is up naming one of the worst place to live because poverty is high in SC.
I speak for the real Atlantians, no disrespect to the out of towners, but I miss my old Atlanta, it was so laid back and cool, real southern hospitality, people waving, speaking and just cooling, the out of towners brought the way they live down here and change the A, it's not Atlanta anymore, I call it the whole world USAlanta lol, not the same anymore, you barely meet anyone from here, they look at us like we from out of town lol. It's a weird Hollywood scary feeling now. I'm born and raised here, it's not the same energy anymore 😪Atlanta wasn't built for this, but they forced it on us. RIP to the old Atlanta🤣😭😭
Most people who grow up in Atlanta move to the suburbs.
As a Grady Baby I feel what you're saying. Aside from the traffic it's a lovely city. I'm moving to San Diego but I'll come back to visit periodically.
@@msvoyeur it's cool but use to be cooler lol, that sounds good, enjoy the west coast 🖖. You still a A-Town Shawty. Yeek...I'm a Grady Baby as well to Zone 6
Man its so bad that people not from here are shocked that I'm from here, like COMPLETELY, all the way, born here.
@@ceecooksey4885 yeah that's what gets me I heard New Orleans, New York even London one time, I'm like no I'm from Atlanta lol, damn...
As someone who travels a lot, I love the airport. I know it’s huge and I know the line can be a nightmare if you don’t have PreCheck, but I love that you can get a direct flight or a flight with one connection to anywhere on earth because damn near every airline uses them as a hub. The traffic is wild, but it’s not as bad as LA.
I’m from the west coast and moved to ATL 8 years ago. It was really hard when I first moved here, I honestly hated it. ATL has grown on me now and I see the good in it. Still HATE the traffic.
That’s a tough transition coming from the West Coast. Especially if you’re specifically referring to Cali. Everything is different. You go from seeing mountains everywhere you look to having your view blocked by a billion trees. The culture is different, the people are different, the weather ain’t the same. It’s like moving to a new country damn near. Most people that move to Atlanta from Cali, end up going back.
@@donjuan914 yea there completely to opposite places in every aspect
*I lived in Atlanta for 13yrs. Atlanta is also known as "The City In The Forest" because of all the trees*
ofc it's in the south lol
I love Atlanta and Athens
I have a love/hate with the trees... While they're pretty, they dump SO MUCH POLLEN in springtime. Not to mention anytime the wind blows from any storm, boom... Trees fall down and the power lines are all above ground so the power goes out an OBNOXIOUS amount of times (like, monthly)
Definitely is in a forest. There's nowhere you can go here where you won't be surrounded on all four sides by trees
@@leeennddaa853 I'm from the Caribbean. As long as the power outage isn't like a daily thing like it feels like while living in the Caribbean, I don't mind.
Thank you bro! I just moved out here last week from nyc. This city is NICE!!
I just returned from visiting Atlanta, and I loved it. A little different from California but I felt like home. We preparing to visit again and look at family oriented neighborhoods to buy in.
Do it. If you’re thinking of coming over here, don’t delay. I’ve been living here for 5 years. There are more pros than cons for me. I love it.
Same here. I love this place. The three main types of crime are theft, murder, and illegal street racing.
The racing part is just noisy, so not a big deal. The murder part is primarily between people that know each other, so not a direct threat....but still unnerving to be around. Theft is the one to be concerned with - basically, don’t leave anything in your car.
@@JazzTechie
I totally agree. My bad Stacy. 🤣. I’ve been involved in the racing part. I recently traded my Dodge Challenger 392 6 Speed Manual with the mufflers cut off. The noise level was especially excruciating to my neighbors in the morning at 7 AM. But listen, I’ve had a bang for the past 4 years with it; been to lots of car shows and made lots of noise. 🙈. I’m not concerned with either the murder & theft as you said. They’re “relative”. Everybody is not automatically a target.
@@JazzTechie nah what is up with the car jacking? I’m so confused!!! It’s 2020 why are we breaking into cars still? What do they do with the parts?
@@LoveNia_ u mean 2021
@@LoveNia_ We??
Yess I needed this Corey I’m moving for school to get my doctorate in chiropractic! Yes post more Atlanta content you’ve helped me before and I trust your advice.
That’s what’s up, glad to help
Welcome. Prepare to get run through.
@Joy Faith. Just because your azz got ran through it doesn't mean it will happen to everyone else. 😂😂😂😂😂
Congratulations 🎊 👏🏽 💐 🥳
Yesssss I love this video I’m moving to Atlanta real soon and would love some more insight of the city. Some in the city videos will be great like different places you have to go, best food spots, the hidden gems of Atlanta stuff like that.
Perfect! I’ll add some more!
Definitely a lot of good food spots to try out here
More ATL pros: All of our trees make for great urban beekeeping. Having traveled to over 60 countries and 40 states, we definitely have the friendliest and most efficient airport. We finally learned our lesson about just staying home for snow days. If you can drive on I-285 you can drive ANYWHERE else in the world, even the roundabout around the Champs Elysee. We have the most delicious eclectic food - one of my favorite restaurants has a combo sushi/falafel platter and what other city has a Black owned vegan food truck park? Also, the weather! The 2020 pandemic wasn't so bad when you could dine outdoors for 50 weeks of the year.
I came to ATL in 1992 to get my PhD at Emory then moved next door to CDC. I'll never leave!! In fact, I'm trying to figure out how to legally be burried in my backyard, lol.
Great story. Thank you for sharing!
Great video Corey!!! I used to live in Doraville when I got out the service and you are speaking truth .( I remember hitting that Spaghetti Junction from the Pleasantdale Road entrance daily😄😄). Everything was great then and still is there but I left when too many folks started moving from up North. Things started changing and I had to bounce....
Thanks man!
Awesome video! Would you be down to make one video, breaking down a minimalist to cook/groceries in Atlanta ? Things we could learn based on your experience to budget ourselves better with our outside rent expenses
Good vid brother.
For me, having moved from LA to ATL a couple years ago, Atlanta traffic really isn't that bad. Outside of rush hours (AM, midday, PM), it's really not that bad at all.
Biggest problem is that people from ATL are terrible drivers, the area is very sprawled and the older roads are very small, which does cause unnecessary pileups.
Housing is crazy cheap compared to the big cities, but the northern suburbs are getting more expensive. Taxes/expenses are still great though.
Oh, and there are A LOT of trees haha. Doesn't matter if you're downtown or in the burbs, kinda all looks the same. Some people will like that, others won't.
Economy is great and the people are great. Also, some great food spots here.
This is pretty accurate I recently visited Atlanta after not being there for several years. The public transit system is not that great at all. Thanks for mentioning that the cost of purchasing a home has been catching up to the other bigger cities. I always thought Atlanta was supposed to be cheaper but as a NYC native it's not that much cheaper.
Got excited the moment I saw the video! This video helped, thanks🙏🏾
No problem!
I’m from Macon and moved up to Kennesaw in 2008…I love ATL! I know the Kennesaw is OTP, but for leisure purposes, I spend a TON of time in the ATL for outdoor events, trails, brunch, dinner, sports, dating (pre-marriage), shopping, landmarks and etc.
I’ve found my groove…I learned how to 99% avoid traffic excluding wrecks & lane closures…I know where to go and where not go…it’s just a great city!
Yes!! Ms. Icy’s is down the street from me, been wanting to try but never went. I’m def gonna go now.
Great video! I'm moving to the Atlanta area in December! Looking forward to it! 👍👍👍
Thank you!
I lived in Atlanta for 7 years with no car back in the early Aughts. It is doable, the key for me was learning the buses. Now, if they have reduced bus routes, it will be really tough.
I was raised in Atlanta and it has changed soo much. It's like the soul of the city left once all the others moved in.
They say the soul of Atlanta left when the 1996 Summer Olympics came.
@@Boxhead42 oh yeah that was the start of it 💯
Facts
I’m a NC guy(Greensboro), but lived in Atlanta for 11 years. The Great Recession moved me to Dallas, but I still got love for my second home!
The Great recession? Bro how old are you?
@@soribakaba9393 hollering 🤣 he’s referring to 08 not the Great Depression from the 40s 🤣😭
Aggie Pride! From NC lived in gboro for 6 years been in Atlanta for 7
Dallas is better in my opinion. Lived in both cities.
@@soribakaba9393 bro you have to take an L for that comment😂
Dope video I appreciate all the information thinking about making a move to ATL
Yes I totally agree with this video. It’s getting worse because people keep coming here. However one thing I would add is that you have everything that you need in the area that you stay in. Atlanta have definitely provided me with a great foundation and a great life. I’m pretty happy!!
Facts
My parents moved there about 30 years ago. I’ve lived there off and on because of them. I have a love/hate relationship with Atlanta and it changes moment to moment when I’m there. I agree with you, the skyline downtown is beautiful.
Great video bro, everything was on point!
When Buckhead is experiencing violent crime problems, that's a bad sign.
Facts… I lived in Buckhead for a while and can’t believe what it’s turned into
Agree
Typically yes, but lately there’s been more crime in that area
@@itzyogirl100 I wouldn't recommend New Orleans
Where in Buckhead would you say is the safest to live?
Not just 5 o'clock but that 7am traffic too! 75, 85, 20, 285... all of em! Car is needed because everything is far spread out!
And MARTA is completely unreliable
Thank you so much. This is a great video and I appreciate your putting this out for all of us.
I’ve been here like a month and I’ve been getting all the vibes you speak on in the video man. I’m from SC too and I can’t wait to see all this place is
Same here. I'm from SC, was living in Charlotte but moved down here early last year and I have no regrets.
Thanks Corey! Always uploading relevant content lol The dating portion was funny!
Preciate it! 👏🏾😂
I just left Atlanta because the vibes just wasn’t for me as a Bostonian, but glad to see a video that does have both pros and cons. Great content!
Gotcha. Where did you end up moving?
@@CoreyMJones3 Back to Boston. I need to be by the water lol. But I have fam in Atlanta and Augusta so I can always visit anytime.
@@SmileyAdventures I am from Boston looking to move to ATL. You on IG?
My Brother ( GOD Bless His Soul) when He first came to Atlanta, He didn't feel it at allll, went back home to Boston.
Came back years later and couldn't get Him to go back home to Boston for nothing in this world.
The South is not for everyone cause it's a different culture however, because Soo many up top folks are moving here, You can find like minded folks.
Overall, The A is worth the homesickness You are guaranteed to feel, the Blackness is sooooo intoxicating!!!!!!!!
❤️🖤💚
Especially coming from Beantown.
Good don't come back..All the other northerners need to follow.
great video moving to the outskirts in two months to train for my career. im from a small town about 4hrs away but honestly i see way more pros then cons. thanks for the advice!
video not long, straight to the point & very detailed ! Thank you
Wow, just had your tiny home video pop up in my recommended videos and I've watched a few now. When you said you were from SC, I subscribed. I'm a bit older now and plan to move back in about 10 years or so. 😊
Thank you 🙏🏾
After rethinking over a thousand times I think I’m gonna actually just move to Atl after this video so thank you🙏🏾❤️💯
Ayyyee!
dont do it!
You'll love it down here. I moved here from Charlotte early last year and I have no regrets
Appreciate the video. Major decisions on deck.
Best one I’ve seen so far!! Great job bro!
Thank you 💯
Awesome advice and very clear and to the point. Planing on moving there in January, can you do a video about neighborhoods? Sort of socioeconomic break down of the areas, that would be dope.
There needs to be a sign that says NO VACANCY. It's crowded as hell. Lol
I've heard this as well.
No it's not.
Let people be happy to relocate! And live their life! This City don't belong to you!
@@laryanryan9170 right just a lot of cars though
@@MoneyComethToshelia get on 85/75 around 14th street through the Grady curve at 5pm and you'll see what I'm saying. Lol
Good video. Atlanta sounds cool and fun. I live in Vegas but i'm trying to move out. I need a change. I love that i hear that Atlanta has tons of trees.
Great video and thanks for the advice 👍🏾
I moved to the area in 2016. My biggest complaint is how apparent it is that families are no longer putting heavy emphasis on teaching proper manners, honor, and consideration of others around you. This is especially clear on the roads and highways. So many people are incredibly self-centered and it makes it very depressing to live here sometimes.
That's the people that move here that teach that. Remember the people that are born and raised here know what Southern hospitality is. That's more of a narrowed complaint rather than a broad one but that sucks
It's the people not from here.
yikes
Facts
I love Atlanta. I can’t wait to move back. Atlanta, my people!
I live in College Park Georgia and it really depends on what part of each town in the city of Atlanta of 15 minutes from downtown as well I am about six minutes from the airport
Great video ! Thank you for the insight because I'm really interested in moving to the ATL
Come on down. We’re about to reach max capacity soon though 😂😂
No were not. They can't build new homes and apartments fast enough.
they say if you pronounce either of the T’s in atlanta, you’re the reason traffic is bad
Exactly..........
Lmao
Damn, I just realized how right you are...
And that's facts.
Lmfao.
Great video. You might need to revisit Charlotte though. Their tree canopy is very dense similar to Atlanta’s.
Atlanta is 47% and Charlotte is 45% but Charlotte city limits are way bigger than Atlanta so more total trees
I am from South Africa,we connected our flights In Atlanta,I have never felt so welcomed in my life,the people were so happy to welcome us at the airport,I will definitely visit for business trip.
Thank you for the video I’m thinking about moving to Atlanta and the video helped
No problem
Those trees generate POLLEN, so you may STILL be gasping for air!
LMAO!! Truth!
Lol gotcha 👌
As an Atlanta native, this is a good and balanced review! 👌🏽
Thank you!
@@CoreyMJones3 can you recommend some good areas to live in Atlanta? I'm from miami I visited in August loved it been thinking about moving there for a while before the trip
Loved this video, Atlanta will always be home 🖤❤
Thanks for the video, Corey! I'm thinking about a move to the suburbs of Atlanta as a temporary place before I move up north. The cost of living lends itself well to first time homebuyers.
Nice video! I lived in Atlanta for a few years and I enjoyed my time there for the most part. However, I think my biggest issue while living there was finding the true Atlanta. There are a lot of people who are not from there who currently call the city home. Therefore, in my opinion, there is a lot of fluff that you have to dig through to find the true culture, real people, and southern hospitality. A lot of people are just pretending to be “somebody” Bc that’s what seems to garner the most respect. I know that could be the case anywhere, but anybody who has lived in the city for any length of time, will tell you that that’s really a thing there.
Also, it does feel like the city is full. Lol Like just prepare for a commute. Traffic is just what it is. At this point, it feels like they’re just building on top of buildings, and soon Atlanta is going to be in Georgia and South Carolina. 😂 Atlanta is cool though. Be congnizant as you would in any other city and don’t be an annoying transplant. Try to immerse yourself into the true culture of the city, and I think you’ll enjoy it even more.
If you want to find nice houses around 200k you have to go to the Decatur, Conyers, Tucker, Snellville, and Stone Mountain area. They’re about 30-40 minutes outside of Atlanta
Exactly! And that’s 30-40 mins without the traffic
@@CoreyMJones3 right lol pros and cons
Ummm, have you been to Decatur lately??? Those homes are $300k and up.
@@enzigenes 200K & under homes aren't plentiful in Decatur in general but are nonexistent in North Decatur. It's 30032 or 30034 so they'll be around Memorial Dr, Candler Rd, Flat Shoals, etc.
@@MrReedGrantberry Somewhat true, but not for long. Those areas are being hit by gentrification hard.
Moved from Atlanta to DC years ago due the economic downturn .. glad to see the city is back.. I do miss there was always something to do, outside always lit fr.
DC is lame and People are toxic af
Thanks for the video, man! It was very useful 👍 I'll definitely check other your videos 🙂
I’m moving to Atlanta late next year. I’m ready to start over
Mrs Icey’s has some of the best oxtails but the NEVER give you enough.
really dope bro, love the energy
Yeah I needed this video fr. I’m born and raised in Dallas but I’ve been thinking about making a move to Atl
I'm in Houston thinking about moving there. Just spent 5 days out there getting a good feel for the city.
I lived in ATL 3 years ago. Loved it. Plan on moving back. My kid and I cried when we left. We aren’t from there.
Why did ya ll move if u loved it
What’s crazy is I was just debating on moving to Atlanta and then I see this video in my notifications lol
That’s your intuition. I hope the video helped
Same here
@@CoreyMJones3 We're planning a move to lilburn this summer. Getting anxious 😂
Do it guys. Welcome. You’ll love it.
Same here tf 😂
8 years in July OTP 😁😁😁😁 I love living on the Southside in Jonesboro and working in Griffin, GA. I don't deal with a lot traffic unless I'm going to the city
Although this video was made 9 mths ago, it’s still appreciated and insightful too! My significant other and our 7 year old son are planning to move south come June/July 2022. Living in WI for 35 years, now MN just isn’t it for us. We’re over the cold weather and lack of diversity too. Thx for sharing Corey!
How is your move going about?
The phrase is actually Rise Up but yea man we stay lit in the A
Lmaoo oh. I was close 😂😂
Atlanta used to be the place to live ...I remember it being a great place to raise your family. I lived there for 30 yrs....but now I reside in Dallas texas...Too much crime and the rent is crazy high......great place for those who like some good soul food.but just different now..It like the new Hollywood. Be safe who ever moves out there!!!
I honestly live in atl now and where I’m at I don’t see or hear crime at all or often. I guess it depends on where you live at. They say the same about nyc
Thank you for sharing your input.
You all are amazing! God bless everyone!
I’m considering moving to an OTP area & appreciate the insight! I’ve only been to the airport for a layover. Definitely looking forward to some exploring! Also love the black excellence, as my son is entering his teenage years soon & could use the influence. 😍
Anytime! Definitely do some exploring 🔥🔥
OTP is where it’s at! Lol!
Not the cockroaches reference LMAOOOOOOOO😂‼️I enjoyed watching this. I am from NYC and the things you said about NYC is true, but I love NYC🤷🏾♂️💯
😂😂
Good video and you are on point my brother.
Great Job. Keep up the good work
I am also a transplant. The Cons: 1. It's overcrowded. 2. The Traffic. 3. The horrible aggressive drivers. 4. The Roaches. The Pros: 1. The food(although I'm not sure why every spot serves wings) 2. The Diversity 3. The Women. 4. The Customer Service/Friendliness 5. A lot of Black professionals 6. The music(including concerts, radio stations, etc.). Overall Atlanta isn't really the city for me, but I can see why people like it here.
No 5 ?? You have to be kidding me
@@leiretxu006 lmaoo
Well it's the south, it's gonna be bugs here
Lol I did notice almost every food place has wings lol
Diversity= gentrification
Everything you mentioned about ATL is on point, love living here. The job part was true, if you live in Atl and you can’t find work, it’s You. Lol
It’s a great place to be but some people don’t even give it a chance
@@CoreyMJones3 this is true!
Right
🤣 that's funny about the jobs
Whew chile it didnt used to be like that back in 2009 but thank his I have a career now lol
I love this video! I have a Financial Planning & Insurance Business here, featuring Investing Education, Whole Life, Universal Life and Term life products. I've been here for a few years and Atlanta is so big that anyone can have all the pros and cons you mentioned and still love this city! 😁 You just have to connect with the right people. 👍🏽
Great video champion.
I just moved from Houston to Atlanta. I found a townhouse in the Lindbergh area, a block from the MARTA station. Give yourself 3 to 6 months to find a nice home. I lost 4 bids but I was patient. The housing is rough because you're going up against Chinese cash buyers. The central area is going to look totally different in 5 years.
I see soooo many Texas license plates in Atlanta now. Its so weird to me because Houston and Dallas are also desirable cities.
Florida tags on every corner. NY tags on every other corner.
@@tamikad3535 It’s all them damn Californians running them out. 😂
@@tamikad3535 I'm confused by that too b/c those were cities on my list of places I would move to before I moved to Atlanta.

Amazing video 🎬
This is my favorite channel right now 🔔
Preciate it! Love yo hear it 💯
I agree with everything you said. I’ve lived all over metro ATL, but now live in Cumming (yes, I’m black and live around too many Trumpers). Traffic is beyond horrific here. There have been many days when I wanted to jump out of my car on GA 400 and walk home.
So Cumming isn't diverse is what I'm guessing? I know of the area but I've never been to that part of town
What's wrong with Trumpers?
I thought about moving to Atlanta years ago, but it never happened. Life ultimately had me go down a different path, so maybe I’ll visit someday. I’ve actually never been.
You should definitely visit 🕺🏾
You would love it..
I’ll think about it. Lol
You will love it here! You’ll want to stay!
yeah i've been in atlanta area for 12 years since i got out of the military and i am still here but i did move from east ATL to Mcdonough where it is much more quite. What i like about ATL is
1. Things to do,
2. there are 3 major sports team to follow ( i love sports)
3. It's close to a lot of major cities within driving distance. (Charlotte, Nashville, Orlando, Jacksonville) and also driving distance to the beaches (Destin, Panama, Savannah and Myrtle Beach)
MY cons are Traffic, humidity and Crime.
Hey Bro, enjoyed your channel, lived in Atlanta for a long time, had to come home to be with my mom, she's gone now so i am headed back to be with my daughter and grand children and old friends. Could you talk about the sport team, one of the reason i moved to the A was school and the Falcons, and Hawks. lived in Atlanta from 74-2011 so I've seen a lot a done a lot in Atlanta, I know the young have taken over, however it's still ATLANTA, Rise Up!!
Anderson SC born and raised here. I lived in ATL Metro for a brief moment and I agree that you can get more bang for your buck in the outskirts. The real estate within ATL is OUTRAGEOUS lol to ME. I could have a house on a hill back home for the price of a townhome in ATL.
Yeahhh you’re from SC so you know. It’s definitely outrageous
It’s still below national average!
I just moved from Covington Georgia to Upper West Side Atlanta and I love it ! I’m close to everything. Traffic does suck and dating sucks so yep you’re right 👌🏾
I grew up in Covington & Conyers. I had to get back into the city. Driving from there to the city has always been horrible
Thanks for sharing, I was moving there, I don’t like traffic & humidity hot weather.
Bro, the first thing we noticed was the air & trees being totally different from the Midwest. I love that
Thank you for not shitting on the city. Good stuff.
As someone who lives in Atlanta myself... when it comes to housing.. definitely move to the outskirts. City living is easy if you looking for an apartment but housing another story
Moved to Atlanta from Texas and the traffic is great compared to Dallas or Houston and I love getting from one side of town to the other within 45 minutes which is nothing like Dallas-Fort Worth or Houston.
Spot on. I Iove living in Atlanta.
