Review of Atlanta, Georgia


Lived here all my life, never want to move!
Star Rating - 12/27/2012
I love Georgia. The weather is great. The public schools, not so great. When living in Atlanta the best schools are to private schools Pace,The Paideia School, St. Tommas More, and the city of Decatur schools. If moving to Atlanta for a job downtown the best place to move is the town next door, Decatur, it is a short drive to Atlanta and the schools are great. If you want to send your kids ages 11-14 to public school DO NOT move to Tucker. The schools there are the worst.
Decatur is by far the best area for middle class families. If you are looking for bigger houses you should consider moving to Buckhead. Buckhead has great schools and a huge park, swimming pool, walking trail, horse barn, and tennis courts. The only downside it coming in/out of this part of the city has traffic 24/7.
Georgia can be a great place to live if you choose your house carefully! Good luck
