I saw this while scrolling through Reddit and it got me thinking. I do hear a lot of negative things about this city which is sad because I have spent my whole life in Atlanta :( To me, Atlanta feels like home. What does everyone else like about living here?

I find that people who live in a city generally have a lot to complain about but take the positives for granted. As a transplant the biggest win is COL and the opportunity to own a spacious house in a good neighborhood. Weather is generally good, lots to do if you like outdoors. Surprisingly good ethnic food options. Where Atlanta is pretty lacking though is cultural attractions imo

It’s less expensive than most major metro areas in the US.

Lots of hiking options nearby.

The airport/Delta has amazing connections. Traveling is super easy and there’s so many flight options.

Truthfully I’m looking to move but I can’t deny the above.

Plentiful space, excellent food, great access to nature, robust home market, low taxes, low COL, fantastic airport, super nice people, remarkably diverse and integrated population, strong gun rights

I love Atlanta and can’t wait to return soon. Only thing I wish it had was better proximity to ski resorts

Which to be fair is tough because I have been spoiled by skiing the Rockies 🥲
