Beautiful area! Unfortunately, people around here drive like maniacs. Sandy Springs is a great area for food and restaurants, like most of Georgia. Living expenses are about what you'd expect of a small city squished between the suburbs and Atlanta. Tensions are high in this area; this city has a VERY diverse background of ethnicities, classes, political stances, and religious beliefs. However, like most of Georgia, the "majority" of peoples beliefs tends to stick to conservative and Christian values.
Sandy Springs is definitely up and coming. Lots of new development, new parks, new infrastructure. Great selection of retail and restaurants. Only negative comment is the lack of sidewalks and connected public transit, but I know this is at least being progressed!
I absolutely love living in Sansy Springs, Georgia! I have been here for a little over ten years, and this city has afforded me many opportunities that I otherwise wouldn't have had in the small town that I am from. Sandy Springs has everything a person could need or want in close proximity. I would highly recommend Sandy Springs living to anyone that would be interested. I especially love the sense of community in Sandy Springs. Not to mention the awesome police department that keeps their citizens safe. All in all, there's nothing I can say negatively about Sandy Springs!
