Here are 5 Reasons to Live in the Greater Atlanta Area
What’s not to love about Atlanta (If you can swallow all of the traffic that is)? Here are the 5 of the most compelling reasons why students, and everyone else, should move to this beautiful city.
Ease of Travel
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the world’s busiest airport, and, although this might cause a good deal of traffic on a daily basis, it is also super convenient for travel. Plus, hosting more than 260,000 passengers daily, you are likely to meet a lot of new people in the area!
Food!
Atlanta is quickly becoming a foodie paradise. After school, students can take their pick from the weekly farmer’s market offerings, emerging food trucks, wonderful restaurants serving American or foreign cuisine. Be sure to check out The Varsity, the place’s most famous restaurant and the world’s largest drive-in. Atlanta also has 8 entries that made it to the list of the most visited waffle houses in the US.
Job Opportunities

You’ll find huge business names like Delta Air Lines, The Home Depot, UPS, Newell-Rubbermaid, AT&T Mobility, and The Coca-Cola Companies, and more than 1000 other multinational companies situated in the metro.
Never get bored
From the attractions, such as the Coca Cola center and the Georgia Aquarium to the sports. Atlanta has six iconic professional sports teams, most notably the Atlanta Braves, Atlanta Hawks and Atlanta Falcons, to the food. Atlanta has something for everyone! Will exploring the three distinctive downtown's could keep anyone busy for a lifetime. Atlanta is also close to both the airport and other major cities for those who like adventure!
Diversity
Atlanta is a great example of stirring the melting pot. The city is quickly becoming one of the most diverse metropolitan areas in the southeast. Being the ninth largest city in the country, inclusion is a must for this city and there is not one area in which one demographic exceeds 50 percent. Atlanta by no means is perfect and has a long way to go, but it is something to be proud of when looking at how far they have come!
