For those of you that live in cities with hot/humid weather in the summer, how do you go on walks on your lunch break?

I know I could go on a treadmill but I don't want to have to change clothes and I like being outside.

Sr PgM role at Amazon relocating to ATL.

Received initial contact from relo agent stating option of $10.5K lump-sum to self-manage the move or a standard assisted relo pkg. Unclear on how much / if temp housing is included w/ either option.

Leaning towards the lump-sum since my wife and I don’t have much. But, I haven’t moved to a different city since college grad, so I don’t have a true baseline for cost/hassle.

Advice? Tips? Benefits?

Accepted a new job that requires me to move to from ATL to NYC. Hybrid role, $110k. I have always been very money conscious, but due to some non-monetary factors I’m debating a few things. Essentially fresh out of school and worth about $50k. Friends in the area suggest living in a popular area that’s commutable to the office. 2-2.5 w/ and 2.5-3k w/o roommates. I’m finding it very hard to justify these prices even with the pay. At what point can you justify paying more for housing costs?

Hey ATL fish, is there a negative connotation to Chamblee vs Brookhaven. From a home buy perspective, I am seeing better deals, newer homes in Chamblee. Both are ITP. But I get the sense that Chamblee has a "working class" element to it, especially with respect to Buford Hwy corridor. Any thoughts?
