I have lived in Atlanta for my entire life. It's growing rapidly due to the film industry which means lots of new businesses and jobs are being created. There is always something new to do in the city. There are sports, shopping centers, movie theaters, amazing restaurant, historical sites, music, and gaming places for kids. Atlanta definitely has something for everyone to enjoy and is an amazing place to bring families and friends. Atlanta's public and private schools are all amazing and provide great nurturing environments for kids of all ages. Atlanta is the place to be!
I have been living in Atlanta for 18 years now and I absolutely love it! Atlanta is filled with many opportunities and it is very affordable to live there. There are many places to visit and its restaurants are amazing. Not to mention it's fun parks and museums in which I visit every so often. Atlanta has a variety of malls and shops to go to like Lenox Mall, Phipps Plaza, Atlantic Station, etc. The Mercedes Benz Stadium is one of my favorites, they hold all kinds of events there and the view inside the stadium is beautiful. Atlanta is also very diverse, it's very different from any other city I've visited. It's also a great city to go to if you're looking for jobs, because the networking there is extraordinary, you will always run into someone that's in the industry or career field you want to go in.
Atlanta is a beautiful city and depending on what area you are living in or visiting there is something for everyone. You have Grant Park hanging out listening to music at the music feast and the kids going to the Zoo which is in the park. Then you travel about five miles north you will be in downtown Atlanta the hustle of the State & City workers and the students of Georgia State University, the lofts, and the restaurants. Oh! let's not forget the landmark Grady Hospital that you see on Hwy 75/85 or from several hotels depending on which one you are staying at.
