I live in Lilburn.

Neighbors are friendly, clerks are as nice as anywhere, people drive fast which is not a problem unless you like slow. There is traffic, so you need to get up early to beat it if you work in the city.
Public transportation into the city (Atlanta) is problematic since the place is so scattered.
Relative to downtown, suburbs are great, schools are better, houses are less, houses are bigger, crime is practically nill where I live. By the way, when many of the high crime levels in Atlanta are mentioned, I believe they are inflated since few people actually live in Atlanta. You see the number of crimes (which is connected to the large number of people who visit and commute in) divided by the small number of people who actually live here...
Resturants are great in the city, world class in fact. Entertainment is easy to find. These last two comments represent the only reasons that my family and I go into the city.
Shopping is excellent. The economy is good. Housing prices are holding up many times better than in a lot of other locations.
Great opportunities. Great place to raise a family. Many churches of all denominations. Lots of good friends.
