I live in the metro Atlanta area. In the United States everything is very dependent on what you’re looking for. Atlanta is what would be stereotyped as THE SOUTH. There are plenty of things to complain about, but what people don’t talk about is how much of a transient city this has become. There are nearly 7 million people in this metro area and many of them are not actually from here. There’s a recognizable economic benefit to living here... housing is way more affordable compared to other similarly sized areas. A $300,000 house on an acre of land in Kennesaw Ga, would be more than $1,000,000 in metro areas of California, NY, Massachusetts, Colorado, etc, since land priced much higher/harder to come by in these places. And then there’s tennis... Atlanta and the surrounding 30 or so miles, has the Atlanta Lawn and Tennis Association (ALTA) which may be the worlds largest rec league. There’s tennis everywhere here. Traffic can be really bad here. Inside the city, there’s shopping, a few museums, and a nightlife for whatever you’re into, and you can probably find entertainment to fit whatever budget you have also. Outside the city there are theme parks and other attractions also, so Uber is definitely your friend. I would definitely say that there are better large cities for excitement if you’re into the hustle and bustle. Overall though Atlanta is a city where you can choose to be in the mix of things, or live 30 miles out and have peace and quiet, while still living in the metro area (this is what I do).Actually this is a nice topic because I've been wondering about something for a whileLeaving aside big or small cities, which city in North America would you say has the best downtown lifestyle? Walkability, public transport, thriving outdoor culture, arts and museums, and not muggers and stabbers around every block
I only know ones from Europe but America I get confused
And please don't say New York because people are rude as phuk there
