What’s the cost of living like in Atlanta? How much do you need to make a year if you live a frugal lifestyle?

And what is so good about Atlanta that makes you want to live there? Im dying to hear your answer

I am a native, born and raised in DeKalb County, went to grade school in Zone 6 (Druid Hills)

there are several things I can say, but I made over 250k last year and I cannot afford a condo

does that make sense? didn't think so

I hope white flight happens again and all the AirBnb landlords go broke

the benefits of living in Atlanta are

>you literally control your pace of life
you can literally do nothing in your home all day, you can hit a couple of bars, concerts, etc. Every major artists will come here as it's the #1 city in Dixieland, I can go on for more details, but you can live as slow as you want or go as fast as you want

>reasonable real estate (before PPP fraud)
the rates and prices for homes and condos were reasonable before the PPP fraud inflation happened - we'll see what happens in the next 18 months

>Top 3 2A state in the nation
the young broke niqqas with switches don't even get arrested for NFA violations here! It's a gun haven

>Midtown, Atlanta
if you're into mulatta women with freckles, this is the Medina of it (and Houston, Texas is the Mecca, and I am the custodian of the two holy sites)

shall I continue?

fuck off, we're full

if you can make over 250k here (and WFH), you are essentially a millionaire

pic related, I love mulattas

I can tell you're not from here, or you live in SC or TN if you think Appalachia is commuting distance to Atlanta. That's weekend trip distance.

Was also born and raised in Dekalb but moved to Athens for school and never came back. What’s atl like these days? Most of my friends fled to Roswell and Alpharetta. I sometimes want to get an apartment downtown, Athens can be a little weird at times, it’s like a bunch of Peter Pan complex manchildren but it’s also comfy as hell. Atl was rough growing up lots of gun violence and shit

dude, I'm grateful to live in a city where if a nagger can carry a Draco, I can at least have an objection to that and carry a MK18 w/ 30 rounds of MK262

Athens is great if you go for the country to do country activity. You know, Georgia/Jawga boy shit. I think I've outgrown the bars down there.

My buddies def like living out there, but I like the urban culture of Atlanta. It makes me feel alive.

lived here most of my life, better than most big cities, but not cheap. i make 120k and live comfortably with a 350k mortgage, which i still see townhomes in decent areas (north metro) show up in that price range.

btw i have never been the subject of negro crime despite my pale ivory complexion, though the furthest south i ever go is downtown and i always go with friends. north metro is very very safe

In my experience atlanta is the worst of all cities statistically speaking. The pay vs cost of living is some of the worst there is. The traffic is insane. It's all because the city is like 60% black and 80-90% of atlanta proper (areas within the beltway) are within range of black crime. So you either pay a ton to live in one of the few safe areas or you do what everyone else does which is commute 2 hours a day from somewhere outside of the city limits.

All the good areas of atlanta's metro are about an hour north (without traffic) and they are very nice areas. Atlanta is so bad that its major business hub is trying to recede and form its own city. Imagine lower Manhatten breaking away from NYC because the rest of NYC is that bad.

Alpharetta/Johns Creek itself is very nice, but expensive since the downtown and Avalon areas are growing so fast, and their school system is very high tier which attracts a lot of foreign families with big bank accounts.
Roswell, Duluth, Peachtree Corners, and Cumming are also nice neighboring towns that are more affordable. Sandy Springs and Dunwoody are also good options if you want to be closer to Atlanta proper while still having an easy commute to Alpharetta

There is no "nice" part of Detroit. Gilbert invested a bunch into downtown building up whatever Illitch didn't already own and it's not nearly enough for white people to move there, because the government is still corrupt and you're surrounded by shit for miles.

The worst thing that Detroit did was around 2000, when they started repossessing and demolishing distressed homes, pushing people from the city to the suburbs.
