    That is a cool drive. Central Atlanta is much more urban than many people think, especially because Atlanta is known for it's low-density residential housing.

    I live in Georgia and I'll tell you what it's really like: if you ever get lost downtown Atlanta you will find the worst roads you can ever imagine. There is a lot of poverty outside of this route he is taking. Buckhead does have a lot of amazing cool

    at 0:37 I've been on that connecting bridge. I think that's the highest one in the city. It's so fun to look down, but kinda scary too!

    I like how you manuever in downtown traffic, like a real professional.

  • @Freewayjim
    @Freewayjim  14 років тому

    Not that I'm aware of with the exception of certain facilities in NY City.
    Keep in mind that I'm not touching the camera at all during these videos, once it's on it's on, plus I have a remote if I need to pause it or anything or I do it at a stop light by just reaching over so I'm not distracted in the least.

    Great video. Do you have a special mount for the camera ? I've done a few of these videos and while my hand is steady, the resulting video STILL shows too much movement for my liking. I look forward to your next video

    Just curious, but have you ever been pulled over by a cop during your trips? And, if so, what did the cop have to say about your mounted camera?

    @Freewayjim maybe I shouldn't have used the term neighborhoods, but I was referring to placing like atlantic station, the lindbergh area and such. as well as downtown, midtown , and buckhead.

  • @Freewayjim
    @Freewayjim  14 років тому

    @pimpsquad27: Yes, I may eventually shoot the downtown/Buckhead streets at night. The Neighborhoods are not lit well enough for that, and really I would not be interested in that anyway.
    I do have a video of the ATL downtown freeways at night posted.

    I lived in Atlanta area from the mid 70's until 2000... In the 80's they had a huge building boom.. unfortunately they didn't build more highways...
    Anyway... I loved the city... Way back then...
    Now, whenever I drive through the city.. I keep my 9MM Ruger in the car....
    Been robbed at gunpoint once..that was enough.

    @Freewayjim Tenn was 7-5 going into that game, and #23 FSU did beat #20 SCar in this past season's CFA bowl, so... :) I'll admit that the ACC hasn't shown up in bowl games like we'd like to... hopefully that turns around soon.

  • @Freewayjim
    @Freewayjim  12 років тому +1

    I've been to every city you mentioned and the ONLY one that is comparable to ATL is Dallas. Nashville is nice but less than half the size, not a fair comparison, Miami is interesting yet different, the others? blech. I guess it depends on what you deem important in a city, and trust me, everyone's values on this subject are very different. If you really want to compare Little Rock to something in its class try Columbia SC.

    @papilgee4evaeva Tennessee was what 6-6? The ACC team in that game ALWAYS plays a lower ranked SEC team just to keep it fair. ACC is 2-11 in BCS games since the format started, SEC teams win championships :)

  • @MrWill1985
    @MrWill1985 12 років тому

    I was talking with my fed ex driver at work about Atlanta and he claims Atlanta is a nice city and hears the cost of living is cheaper in Atlanta then up in Baltimore. Which is one reason I intend to move to Atlanta. I did see ATL's violent crime rank is the same as Baltimore and property crime is at 9 on a scale from 1-10 as Baltimore its at 6. So how safe do you feel Atlanta is? I would like to move to another city and wish to move somewhere safer then Baltimore.

  • @Freewayjim
    @Freewayjim  12 років тому

    @MrWill1985 I personally like Baltimore, I find it an interesting place for what I like to do but living there may be a different deal. Crime is bad in some places in Atlanta, like any big city, just stay away from those areas and everything will be fine. In the main parts of the city and metro area I'd say it's pretty safe overall.

    @papilgee4evaeva What exactly did I say that's negative about VT Fans? I made a point that they guy who was turning left from the middle lane was from out of town with VT stickers, in for a ball game (Chick Fil-a-Bowl). Geez! As if turning left from the middle lane isn't bad enough on it's own merit, the VT mention was nothing more than college FB gamesmanship, this is SEC country you know.

  • @MrWill1985
    @MrWill1985 12 років тому

    I am going to visit different cities to determine where I should move to. Im sure downtown in any city is well patrolled by police but surrounding downtown in each city can be a different story. Baltimore has even gotten to a point surveillance cameras had to be installed in most inter city neighborhoods. Even downtown. But I still avoid bad neighborhoods in almost any major city.

  • @Freewayjim
    @Freewayjim  14 років тому

    @pimpsquad27: Yeah, I could see doing those places at night sometime.

  • @MrWill1985
    @MrWill1985 12 років тому

    @Freewayjim So far Ive been to 5 major Cities. Baltimore, DC, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and NY. I do plan to visit Atlanta, Charlotte, Cleveland, as well as Columbus. And Baltimore which is the city I grew up in is the worst city Ive been to. Simply because too many panhandlers and the fact the judicial system of Baltimore is too lenient. Have you ever had to handle ATLs judicial system and if so how good of a job do they do with justice?

    hi,it seems that ALT is beautiful,but I've heared that there are some dangerous areas! I want to know them...and how they're are dangerous??! (we're from France and we're gonna internt at Georgia Tech Research Institute)

  • @Freewayjim
    @Freewayjim  12 років тому

    @MrWill1985 I've never dealt with the judicial system in Atlanta, like any big city it has it's pluses and minuses. Yes the cost of living is far more reasonable here than any other city this size. Don't move to Atlanta, move to the northern suburbs of Atlanta, big difference. (Outside I-285 and north US-78). Charlotte is similar to Atlanta, just a smaller version that is still growing but the difference is that Charlotte is a Southern City, Atlanta is an International city.

  • @crowbird213

    The old downtown of Atl feels kind of unsafe. But there are different sections just north. Midtown and buckhead. I think Atl feels safer than the cities in the great lakes region.
