Not being from Atlanta nor spending any time there, I'm not very familiar with the city. Would any Atlanta residents care to comment on the pros and cons of Atlanta for someone in our age group? Thanks!
Pros: Party central. Clubs open EVERYDAY of the week till 3-5am. (if that's your thing)
Cons: Can be distracting around certain times of year. (ALL holidays)
Pros: Living downtown is okay (for me at least)
Cons: TRAFFIC TRAFFIC TRAFFIC and someone tried to rob me at 11am
Pros: Variety of things to do (museums, art, music, food, dance)
Cons: Gotta find it (as said before)
Pros: This is a singles town
Cons: Sucks if you're like me and been single for 5 years
Pros: Very very very large SUCCESSFUL African American community
Cons: Black Hollywood.. literally. This is where they film movies, shows, and the BET hip hop awards, etc... can be annoying at times. Some people are straight up ignorant
