It is a great location only it’s getting crowded by the minute. Traffic is horrible and about to get worse since new development are popping in every corner but let’s say that’s a big city life.
The amount of homeless people wondering around day and night is unreal. The city / police does NOTHING about it. You can hear them yelling, fighting and cursing sometimes in the middle of the night YET Fulton county taxes for midtown are just getting more and more expensive.
CLEAN UP MIDTOWN!

My experience living in Midtown, Atlanta, GA is a great on! I love being in the heart of the city where everything is conveniently located. I have no concerns with traffic during my commute to work, being that I am going against traffic. I can walk across the street to purchase groceries, visit the post office, and even stop by a nice restaurant for brunch. If I have to change something about this region, I wouldn't change a thing.
Very lively place with a lot of things to do. We have lots of malls and beautiful sights to see! The roads are very safe even during the night time as there are people always moving about. The nightlife here is absolutely wonderful and the streets are so easy to traverse. You can get around midtown with bicycle as there are many bike parking spots. You could also use birds or limes to move about quickly for a cheap cost.
