So far it has been a very good experience. It is a very clean area and a very pet friendly environment. The traffic isn't horrible, but rush hour gets pretty bad. This area has all the stores you need to survive!
This is a perfect area. The school system is really decent and offers a variety of programs for its students. Many local stores and retailers reside in this county. A variety of grocery stores are readily available, spanning just a few miles apart. Local services include dentist offices, medical practitioners, and public aid facilities. Police presence is high, adding a level of comfort and security throughout the area. The Braves Stadium, Cobb Energy Center, and Cobb Galleria Renaissance Center are located within this county attracting out of state visitors and many Georgia residents.
Cobb County isn't that bad of a county. It's very nice and people are pretty friendly. I love how close it is to Marietta and some universities like Kennesaw State! The homes are very nice and the neighborhoods are beautiful.
