I moved to Dallas with only $1500! Been here for 4yrs and loving it! Dallas was my come up so many opportunities!
Love to see it !!
Huh how ? Girl 😂😭
Is the weather super hot during the winters ?
@@Iambrijean no
How Sway?!!!
from Cali moved to Atlanta 15years ago. I love ATL this is home and the best place live so much fun and cultural enrichment. I only miss the beach in LA... My advice give ATL at least 5 years to meet some genuine good people. In corporate environment its refreshing to not always be the only black in a leadership position. Its just awesome to live or see all black high affluent neighborhood with good amenities. name of the waterfall is Roswell mill in downtown Roswell. Everyone experience is different but I highly recommend young black professionals to consider ATL because you really don't get this type of cultural enrichment and opportunities anywhere else. Lastly, pray, Trust God and just be lead by the Holy Spirit.
Thanks for this bro. I’m LA born and raised and but I’ve been yearning for a while for a change of pace. I’m 46, single and my kids are now all grown. I’m a degree’d 6-figure earner and would hope to match that when/if I move. ATL is on the top of my list but for some reason my anxiety is thru the roof regarding leaving everything I know and love. I need to make a decision soon though. Time waits for no man!
@@JoePaparazziTV waiting on God is never lost time. Patience is the character of God's spirit not movement. Been here 15years and ATL not going nowhere bro, wait on God's timing. You will know cause it will be perfect! He got you just trust!
@@fmalcom80 I appreciate that bro!
What about C-R-I-M-E?! I've been seeing somethings on social media. I want to know if it's really as bad as IG and Twitter make it seem.
5 years to meet good people?? Sheeesh
Atlanta transition ain’t no joke!! Love how you keeping it real.
It will make or break you for sure . Thank love 💕
I just moved from Atlanta to Dallas in March best thing I ever done. Dallas is huge with way more jobs. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omg yall I cant wait to move. Im in Atlanta also. Planning to moving to Dallas before the end of the year. This video just popped up on my feed.
I recently moved from Atlanta to Dallas & I miss Atlanta & don’t even go out 😩. I miss the cultural however Dallas is cool. There is more opportunity in Dallas job (pay) than Atlanta. Great video
@@kaydiamonds33 what about the culture you miss
Well i moved to ATL and they said its so many jobs not enough people to filled the positions....Came from NYC and moved from MIAMI best moved I have ever made...different experiences for everyone and watch what another person say..not everyone story the same...I got a job next day and everybody else i know..just cant be picky
The haters are just losers who don't know how to make money and don't know how to stand their ground when dealing with different people.
This video is heaven sent because I’m 23 now and I’m considering moving to either Atlanta or Texas once I graduate and become a certified medical assistant a lot of my family is starting to move to Texas and ATL they told me there’s a lot of opportunity for medical and business so thank you for sharing your experience sis gives me a lot to think about 🙌🏾
Congrats on becoming a Medical Assistant you’re gonna love it.
@@VashtiAmon thank you!
Thanks for doing this video... and sharing your knowledge and take on this !!
I've lived near ATL for almost 9 years now, and I agree with everything you said. I'm glad you brought up needing 2-3 times the rent, because my mom tried to live here 2 yrs ago (moved from FL) to be closer to me. She was SHOCKED to find that out, because apparently, in Florida, you don't need to provide that information.
This was soo thorough! Thank you for this❤️
Glad you liked it!!
I'm 29 with a solid career and business, my brother and his family relocated to a GA small town and loves it however Atlanta just isn't my cup of tea as far as to live. Either of these cities would be a breath of fresh air cost of living wise as I live in one of the most expensive cities. Praying the lord leads me to a clear decision. Great advice!
I’m 28 too, I like good clean fun as well so I think Dallas would fit me better. Thank you for this video
You guys are in my prayers and hope you are keeping safe and warm🙏
Thank you for this I feel like you were such a big help and gave a lot of information in this video
Thank you I’m so glad I was able to help.
I love this video. It’s very informative and gives great detail. Currently in ATL
Thank you !
Historic Roswell Mill - hiking/waterfall
Great content. Keep up the great works! ❤️
The way you speak about faith and god is so uplifting. I’ve been in Atlanta since I was 23. I’m 33 now and I’ve been wanting to move since about 27. I’m looking towards moving back to Florida where I was raised or possibly Texas. I’m not happy here as it’s really hard to make friends when you work at home. I have a small daughter and my intermediate family lives here so I’m scared to move and not have any “breaks” and going out and things of the such. However I feel my unhappiness has overpowered that feelings and I’m ready to act on faith. Thank you for the video. I’m also single and have been for 5+ years will no real prospects here in Atlanta since everyone’s usually looking to have a good time. I’m hoping wherever I choose I can eventually settle down and get married. 🙏🏾❤️
Dallas is more family oriented. I love that it’s chill and there’s opportunities here as well. Stepping out on faith is the key . Just trust God and make the move. 💛
@@VashtiAmon will do that ❤️❤️🙏🏾 thank you
@lol I wish you well! ♥️♥️ have you left Atlanta yet? or has it gotten better? 🙏🏾🙏🏾 please tell me something good. ✨✨
I’ve lived in both and I think this assessment is extremely accurately. Good job sis!
Thank you so much Leia ♥️
Its so crazy how this video just popped up on my feed. I too live in Atlanta currently and Dallas has been calling my name for a few months as of late. Idk why because I dont know anyone there and have never even been, but its on my heart to move there, and this video just came right on time. Thank you so much for this video.
You are so welcome ! Good luck to you girl !
Shane ikr, slide into my dm. I am from Dallas.
Shaneika, hit me up

You were telling the TRUTH about the income and having a job secured beforehand down here in the Atlanta area. I’m sharing with my younger brother and his girlfriend. Very beautiful and so insightful.
Thank you so much ! Best of luck to your family . 💛
I appreciate your videos 🙏🏽💓
Thank you so much ♥️♥️♥️
Great vlog and congratulations on the baby.
Thank you !!!
I moved from Atlanta to Dallas after living in Atlanta for 10 years. I often tell people the size of Dallas metro is like taking a city larger than Birmingham and moving it 30 miles from Atlanta and building up the area in between. A lot of people don’t realize that the metro is comprised of two major cities.
@wavy w you will be fine do not worry about the tornadoes.
It’s the 4th largest metropolitan area in the nation. DFW
I’m thinking about moving from Birmingham... i just don’t know where i want to go!
@@Jamienealy101 Why don't you compromise and move to New Birmingham, Texas.
How you like Dallas compare to Atlanta far as the social scene and culture?
Love this video 🙌🏾 because I almost moved to Atlanta but God knew I belonged in Dallas
Sooo happy you can came to Dallas!
Are you African?
i lived in Atlanta well jonesboro with my family in 2011 from ohio , and i agree with you . it is more expensive than ohio and it wasn’t easy for us like that , and it’s even more expensive now . and you have such a good head on your shoulders to be a younger adult . keep God first!
Thanks for the dating comparison! I was in doubt about Atlanta considering the DL stuff. Def confirmed my decision is on Dallas
Yeah, I visited ATL, even some of the straight man seemed a lil sweet lol, but there’s good looking people in ATL
I agree with Atlanta being the city of opportunity! It was the first city I networked in. I love Dallas though chill, opportunities, and the cost of living 🙌🏾 Dating life isn’t bad either.
Please tell me more about the dating life! I have the choice of moving to ATL or Dallas. I want to get married soon and I feel like Dallas may have more conservative men looking to settle down. I've lived in ATL before, btw. Thoughts?
@@BLink2fu Dallas is the place for you. My Atlanta brothers ain't ready for all that because they getting the milk from every cow for free
@@coreyj.7776 say that!!!!
@@coreyj.7776 Thank you Corey!
@@BLink2fu No problem. Good luck in your search for your future him, if you haven't already found him.
I just turned 45 in May.I live in a 4 bedroom home that is now paid for.I moved in my home in October 2006.The mortgage was originally $1,800.00 a month.I put $30,000.00 down on it and my mortgage became $1,400.00 a month.That was in the fall of 2006.I made my last mortgage payment November 2018.Now I am blessed with a house and two cars that are paid for.I am born and raised in Texas.They have a great job market!Just to be fair you should always have a great education,money saved,money invested,and build to grow towards being established.No it doesn't happen all in one day,and no it's not easy.After all you have to crawl before you walk.I worked my ass off to get to where I am.I honestly didn't think I would be able to have my house paid off before I was 50,but I did.When you are serious and you have and take your dreams,goals,aspirations,and your vision seriously and stay on that grind,you will definitely see a drastic change.If I leave this world today,my adult children will be in a home that is paid for.
@arabellia you stayed focused! This was definitely a messages! Thanks a ton for sharing!!
I definitely like this video it was very helpful ♥️
@Vashti Amon, beautiful commentary. I moved to Atlanta 15 years ago well. I notice that Frank mention cultural enrichment opportunities which I'm a little lost on that, but I love your advice for considering moving. Also before all else, I would say to those who have a relationship with God, seek him as to where he wants you to live, what works for one person does not mean its a one size fit all for everyone.
Hey Vashti, glad you're enjoying the DFW Metro.
Couple questions for you in regards to the ATL area.
I noticed you lived in Duluth, what did you think about that area and the other "Koreatowns" ? How does the food compare in ATL vs DFW?
How about the weather? How do they compare?
That’s so true moved back in December and got a job the same week. Not my dream job but I am able to maintain thanks to God. I’m born and raised in Atlanta so here I have been able to achieve things I tried many times to achieve in Atlanta and it never happened
How is the dating life? I am looking to settle down with a Christian man. I have the option to choose ATL or Dallas. I would prefer a black man, but am open to other races.
@@BLink2fu I don’t really have a dating life. I’m also open to date any nationality just as long as he has great values and treats me right. My current job takes all my time. Girl manifest that Christian man and be very specific.
Great information thanks I am moving from Dallas to Atlanta in a couple of months
Please tell me your experience in Atlanta as you by now have moved to Atlanta. I'm thinking of moving too with my young family.
Thank you for putting this up. I am from Georgia and see us (black folks) do the "I'm gone come here without a job" in Atlanta and it gets you more potential to be scammed or exploited because you are super desperate. HOWEVER, Atlanta is kind of tough and is FAR more expensive than Dallas and Houston. You have to have enough stability to afford it because now-a-days, the A and its inner ring suburbs are as expensive as Miami today and when you lived there. And it is SUPER competitive (in some sectors they require degrees for absolutely no reason) to get a decent paying and stable job. And I think Atlanta is kind of like a mini-New York or Northeastern city where it is becoming sort of "made"(Dallas and Houston are huge and still have more room to develop) where it is really helpful to have connections with those (mainly black if you are a black person) who are established especially considering how expensive it is becoming. People run to Texas because rent, home prices, and prices of other things are still cheaper than much of the U.S., but especially Atlanta and Miami. And with Big Tech coming in now-a-days, it will become even worse which poses problems from us (black folks) because it can easily price us out. Metro ATL will have you runnin' all around the area to find something affordable now-a-days. It's getting rough considering it's a southern city with jobs that are not union jobs so you can't negotiate wages if you are at a blue collar job. Either way, I think people are still flocking there because they think it is still cheap and that every scene is super accessible (like the film scene and whatnot) when it really isn't anymore.
I'm so glad I found your video. I'm in Atlanta currently and have been thinking about moving to Dallas with my boyfriend but first need to hear it from God. It's such a small world because I follow Belong Church too!
Oh wow! I love it !
Originally from Florida lived in Atlanta for 15 yrs and Moved to Dallas Tx in 2019. I'll put it like this if your young and love the party scene and do not mind being a serial dater then Atlanta is definitely the spot for you. If your more chill and looking to make a step up in life with more job opportunities and looking to settle down raise a family etc ... then Dallas is the perfect spot for you. If your moving to Dallas from Atlanta be warned even though the DFW metroplex is bigger than Atlanta it will seem VERY SLOW and country at first. If you ever run into another person from the A here in Texas YOU WILL REMINISCE about the things you did and missed. Location wise Atlanta has the slight advantage because of the short drive to the mountains or the beach if you love the outdoors. Dallas you have the option to go to either Louisiana or Oklahoma for Casino's. And the summer heat in Texas I guarantee you is nothing like you ever experienced in Georgia cause it is HOT AS A MF !!!!! But in return you get a piece of mind and the opportunity to meet some great people who are ready to be settled down. That you won't find in Atlanta or if you do it's a diamond in the haystack. Also Texas has a supercharged housing market which is a great investment to make IF you can get a house right now. Traffic isn't "as" bad in Dallas being it's a more complex highway system here compared to being stuck on I285. There are no state taxes here in Texas but the property taxes are outrageous if your a homeowner. Dallas is also more diverse than Atlanta with a drove of people moving here from Cali. Overall Texas is a cool place but once again I can't stress this enough DO NOT move here if you looking to party like you did in Atlanta because you will be highly disappointed !!!! Deep Ellum is NOTHING like Auburn Ave. I do hate that there is no Publix grocery stores in Texas tho 😔
Thank you for this detailed message! I want to settle down. I have the option to move to ATL or Dallas for my job. Are the men in Dallas more conservative than ATL? I need a Christian man.
You can settle down in Atlanta. Don't listen to the folks who say Atlanta is just for partying. If you want to party every day you can but us grown folks have moved on from the partying scene. Once you grow up and look beyond partying you will enjoy life here.
@@BLink2fu beloved turn it all over to God and let and allow him to find you a christian man.
I have to disagree on the The slow pace part.
Dallas is defenitly more fast paced than ATL is.
And it doesnt feel country it just feels like you're in a Urban fast pace nightmare where cars and noise never stops.
@@BLink2fu Dallas is more blue than any city in the South.
As a resident of Dallas, at 22:43 that was the most accurate perspective amongst the 2 cities I've heard.
As soon as I got the notification. Already watching it ASAP. She is so prettyyyy.
Thank you ! 💕
This is a great video. I am in prayer about God’s will for me and moving Dallas. Glad I found your videos on your move and views, tips on moving to Dallas. God bless!
Thank you soooo much ! ♥️♥️
Great video. I’m going to e relocating but decided if I’m going to NC or TX.
You are gorgeous. Thank you for the info
Thank you !!!
I definitely enjoyed this video! My sister lives in Atlanta "Buckhead area" and she was trying to get me to move there, but I am sold on Dallas Texas. I've been out there 3 time's to Dallas and it feels like home to me and a lot of opportunities for a handyman like myself. Thanks for a great video 👍
Born in Atlanta, raised in South Florida and moved to Dallas and I love it. Texas in general is awesome
You are on point! I also moved from Atl to Dallas. Career opportunities are better in Dallas.
I wanna meet all new people when I move to Dallas because I will be moving to Dallas not knowing anyone.
Most of the major cities in Texas have a strong job/career climate. Not hard to find an opportunity. Ive been in Texas for 12 years. Moved out here from Atlanta to Houston.
I lived in Dallas straight out of college and left in 2012. I'm in Atl now and have been for some years but you are 100% correct. I'm purchasing a home and moving right back to Dallas next year. You definitely need to be established or at least have a hefty savings before coming to Atl. I live in Cobb County and the cost of living is outrageous to me.
Come on home sis
I’m planning on relocating to Dallas in June 2021 and I’m super excited. I’m from Ohio and will miss the fact Ohio gets all 4 distinct seasons. But Dallas seems really fun and full opportunities. And there seems like so much to do.
@Alexandria Dickens do have a ig page ?
What is Cobb County like?
@@Madajai88 I think it's expensive and feels super suburban.
As someone who lived in the DMV for years and now San Diego, CA. Atlanta is cheap comparatively speaking lol. Especially for a large city that has a lot to offer. But I understand that this perspective in this video is based on moving from other places where cost of living is cheaper like Dallas and/or Southern cities, so that would be a lot more an adjustment than someone say like myself moving from CA to ATL.
I moved to the Atlanta area almost a year ago, and I didn't come from a super pricey place. So I'm feeling it a bit
Hey lovely! Love your insight as always! Thanks for touching on the dating life in Dallas I was definitely concerned about that. Lol I’ve too heard most people that move there eventually get married. My life coach is in Dallas as well and she actually met her husband there and they started a church together (beautiful love story). Any who, if you do happen to make a part 2 would you mind touching on how it’s like forming new friendships in that area?
Hey Chelsea ! Thank you soooo much. I love to hear stories about others finding love, it gives me hope .💛 I will be sure to include that in my next video . Finding friends in Dallas will be a breeze for you. I have noticed that there are lot of young women moving to Texas . God had friends waiting for me and I’m so grateful for that.
@@VashtiAmon Yassss! Awesome! That makes me excited and relieved because when I make my transition I won’t know too many people there so that’s great to know! Thank you so much!

Dallas is the promise land sis 💛
@@ever4diamonds I really want to know what to do before I move any advice?
Moving anywhere without getting stability/job first would make any where seem more expensive. Coming from Miami to Dallas I can’t wait to go back to Miami and it seems like Atlanta doesn’t have anything any other large city wouldn’t have.
@wavy w it’s not that hard to understand lol.
@wavy w if she's a party girl type she probably would like Miami more because of the vibe and the fact that it's on the coast. Dallas is more for the black mature adults. To me Dallas is Miami without the water and the pretentiousness.
Girl I’m thinking of moving from Miami to Dallas, would you recommend. How does it compare to Miami? Miami got half of my heart by the way lol but I think Dallas has a lot of opportunities based on what I’ve heard.
@@johnhollis2253 I like Miami better than Dallas because Miami has more mature adults.
@@user-wt9xm6xz6l read my comment.
I work in healthcare I’m from New Orleans and me and my best friend moved and we researched and thought Decatur was the best fit for us and we both transferred with our jobs and we both drove from Nola to Georgia to do interviews and apt search within a few days just a little tip for ppl considering moving anywhere and I also was 20 when i moved to Decatur east side which was December 2008 until April 2014 I’m back in New Orleans
I made the mistake of moving to ATL with no job and for a relationship. All bad🤣. Luckily I had savings. The job market wasn't plentiful in terms of pay, and everything was so far. I did like it however, it was fun, nice to see black folks doing well in the masses, you get alot of home for the money.
I was a good experience. I don't regret it I'm fine with visiting.
I had a similar situation but when my ex and i broke up i lost my job and i was trying to find roommates but it’s so hard to find people that wouldn’t ghost or try to scam me :/ so i had to move back to dallas
@ZurieRae sounds like you didn’t overstay which is excellent!! Well done! 👍🏾
I needed to see this
I love ❤ living in RVA & never plan 2 move jus wanted 2 see what all the hype is about i think if your a fun person & a go geter you can make life great where ever u live😉
The kind of woman I look form. A beautiful hustler. She understands the struggle and how to come up... She ambitious spiritual and resourceful.. Great video. Hope I could bump into you someday.
First of all, I want to say I love your video. I agree with everything you said except for Dallas night life. Dallas has tons of night life, especially in Deep Ellum, Bishol Arts, Greenville Ave, etc. I haven't experienced ATL night life so I can't compare the two.
Thank you 🙏🏾
Totally agree! The nightlife in Dallas is so underrated and marginalized compared to other cities. There are plenty of partying options in Dallas. I never get bored because there aren't enough places to party and meet people.
I love your faith
Great video
Stay blessed 😊
Tks very much sis 💪🏾🤎 dang i love our black sister
I love Dallas. We visited there last month and I want to move there.
Welcome to Dallas it's a great city to live in.
Thank you !!
Great video! I love how you based all of your decisions on God.
Hi! Love your video! I’ll actually be moving to Dallas in March and finding a church is a big deal for me. You mentioned Pastors LaBryant and Phineka Friend and my current church is under the same overall leadership as ANWA ATL that they formerly pastored. I really would love to find a church home similar to that with the same teachings, power, prayer, worship, etc. Do you have any recommendations?
I am currently attending Transformation Church online. I haven’t been able to search like I would normally due to the pandemic .
@@VashtiAmon totally understand! Thank you!
Dallas native here, if I may recommend a few churches.....OCBF, Concord, Antioch, and IBOC. I believe they all have online services at this moment!
@@alexandriajanay9376 thank you!!
Moved to Tampa (big mistake) from Ohio and now looking to move to Dallas. This vid and the comments on Dallas are encouraging.
@Tracy M Tampa is known for scams so imagine living in a city full of people with no morals, values and poor character. It’s just in the air here or something and I don’t want to be surrounded by people who are constantly looking for the next scam, come up or whatever. Cannot develop genuine relationships/friendships with the locals and they are also very defensive when you point out the ills of the place. I’ll pass.
@Tracy M Florida is a good place to visit but not live. It definitely earns its bad reputation. Florida man is not just a joke. The stuff they do here is just ridiculous. I’m living it and it’s unbelievable…anything goes. I’m not built for this kind of life and I can’t do another 30-40 years of this foolishness. They can have it.
If you want to come up, Dallas.
If you love to party, then Atlanta.
If you serious about life, then Atlanta is not the place.
Lol simply put . Love this .
That is a very immature analysis of Atlanta. Anyone can make good money here. Young people think Atlanta is just for partying. Once you grow up you will realize that's not what Atlanta is about. All TH-cam videos about Atlanta are young folks going to clubs and other tourist attractions. Other than the restaurants we don't even go to those places. Our kids go to good schools, we have good jobs, we live in nice neighborhoods and we travel when we want a change of scenery.
@@VashtiAmon I agree with u brother , I'm just seeing bad stuffs about ATL. Some of the things ain't accurate
@@laryanryan9170 beloved the biggest complaint is that the cost living in Atlanta is higher,which is the truth.And that is why either people are moving outside of Atlanta or just moving away from Georgia.
@@arabelliajohnson8916 if you grow up in Atlanta, when you graduate from high school you move into an apartment in one of the suburbs. People who are not from Atlanta make a big deal about of it because they don't know how living in the metro works. Young folks in their twenties who claim to be born in Atlanta don't even count.
Welcome to Dallas! I’ve been here since graduating from college in 2016. But I can’t lie, I really want to move to Atlanta.
🤣😂🤣 now that's funny
@shalanabrooks thank you ! Atlanta is a pretty cool city. I will most definitely encourage you to visit and if something you truly want to do then make the move.
What piques your interest about Atlanta? and what makes you wanna move away from Dallas
Very good content thanks for this
Thank you sooo much !
I’m from Chicago currently residing in Houston and considering Dallas or atl
@@VashtiAmon can we get a Charlotte vs atl vs dfw
@@sophiak.martin2820 Houston and Atlanta are a lot alike . Charlotte is cool and reminds me a lot of what Atlanta was 5 years ago. It’s definitely an up and coming city.
I met a guy that use to live in Atlanta & he moved back to New York he said it was very expensive partying practically every night wearing designers he said he couldn't handle it & he also starred in the biggie movie he played lil Cease that's how the conversation started i recognized him from the movie & he has gorgeous green eyes.
Your friend sounds very immature if all he did was party and wear designer clothes. You have to grow up at some point. Then you can enjoy life regardless of where you live.
So random that this popped up on my feed. I’m moving to Dallas next week 😳😳😳🥳🥳🥳

Im from Illinois and I been in Dallas for a minute now .... Trust me its alot of money and good living you will love it..
@@VashtiAmon yay thank you!! We need an ATL transplant group/meetup!! Lol
@@shaneikamccray8718 So exciting!!! Hope everything goes smoothly.
I moved form Alabama to Atl 10 years ago. cost of livng has gone up a but over that time. but u can get more bang for ur buck living outside the city limits. Its opportunity and it black folk doin well.
Nowadays, one shouldn’t move to ANY major city without a job and stability firmly in place beforehand, especially if you have big dreams and tryna live large. Otherwise it’s gonna be a bad experience and setting yourself up for disappointment or failure.
wait so if I'm financially stable I'm good? Or am I still going to be a failure I was born and raised in Dallas and I'm 18 yrs old
THANK YOU for simply saying what needed to be said! ⚡️

Thank you again!!
Yes Black Girls of Texas ok Facebook, Dallas Social Butterflies .
This is a very informative video. I am planning to move to Dallas and I really want a smooth relocation. I do not know anybody in Dallas. Would you recommend a relocator? Is there any website to connect with relocators? Please advise!

Hey hun, which temp agency did you use ?
I’ve been in Dallas for 11 years and I actually wouldn’t mind living in ATL or DC. Dallas lacks culture.
Have lived inn all 3, if you are not financially set, then Dallas is your go to because you will always be able to get a job.
Tee Jay Dallas is extremely diverse,you really need to learn more about Dallas,it definitely doesn't lack culture beloved.
The cost of living is higher in D.C. then Atlanta.Dallas is cheaper than both of them.Good luck!
I'm not even sure what that means. What is your culture?
@@arabelliajohnson8916……It does lack it sweetheart 😘
Ok question about the job what if you don't plan on moving right away but need an offer letter from a job how long will that job hold your position?...people always say that but being realistic how?...
I’m so glad I found your page ! I live in Atlanta and want to relocate to Texas, but idk if I want to go to Dallas or Houston. 🙄
Have you been to Houston ? Houston to me us just a tad bit more fast paced than Dallas . Dallas is good if you more laid back and especially if you are looking to settle down .
@@snoodysnoody8118 No i haven’t even been to Texas😂 but I’m going to visit soon...thank you so much for letting me know !!
@@snoodysnoody8118 I agree ! Houston reminds me of Atlanta .
@@tiyealyxandriaaa Houston is a fun city as well. You have good options to choose from. The deciding factor for me was where I am in my life currently . I may or may not try out Houston but it’s Dallas for now .
@@VashtiAmon thank you ! Honestly I’ll most likely try Dallas since I want something different than Atlanta lol
Dallas is an amazing place! 🤍
Can you share details on your bundles? Where did you purchase them and how long are they? What length? Your install looks flawless.
Thank you so much. I got my hair from @hairbyjah on Instagram . She is an Atlanta stylist . I have length 22 & 24
Does Dallas require 3x pay requirement as well?
also can you do more videos on Dallas ?. thank you
Great Video!! Make the part 2
what cities did your friends move after atl and found a relationship?
How is the property management industry there? I’m a PM in Chicago right now
It great . You won’t have a problem finding a job. You may even be able to transfer to a property in Georgia of your company has a portfolio in GA. They also have staffing property management companies such as BG Multifamily, AAA staffing, and On-site Staffing. Best of luck to you .💛
I’m from Calumet City been in Atlanta and now on my way to Dallas
I am 49 yo & I was not all about the party scene at 28 as well. I am just like you. I love vacations, brunch & enjoy relaxing & cooking at home.
You think the dating life in Atlanta is not great is just the same in NYC. I’m 49 & will continue to be single until the day I go 6 ft under.
Great video; however, who in the world is moving without a secure job?! I guess there are ppl who do that but I honestly don’t know any of them.
You are beautiful! And you're Christian?! I wish we met prior, I just moved to ATL. Stay in His path Sis!
I needed to see this I’m from Ca and been in Atl for 4 years and I hated it at first right now it’s ok But I still want out. I’m hoping to be in Dallas by June at the latest
Good luck with your move ! 💛
Why you did like it at first in Atlanta?
@@keithboykins258 a lot of the black people are closed minded , not as diverse as I thought
Hey pretty lady do you think I should get a job before I move to Atlanta oh my bad I already live Atlanta no I actually live west of Atlanta and Douglasville right now so I can kind of understand what you're saying but I've never not been able to find a job here with proper ID I mean I feel like if you had two months worth of rent and just sustaining yourself I think you can make it
"have a job" wow, pure genius!
You really have me considering Dallas! I’m also 28 living in Atlanta and I don’t think it’s for me 😕 I wish I came here when I was in my early 20’s when I was in a “carefree” state but I need somewhere with better pay that isn’t as saturated.
But yes...dating is trash here Lmaooo. I talk about this all the time.
Thanks for this video! Really enjoyed it 💕
I lived there in in my younger 20's and it was perfect but now its a bit much for me.
Can you do a video about your experience living in Charlotte?
I’ m interested in this as well!
I’m from Charlotte 😊
Charlotte is a nice city. Very family orientated and chill.
Any recommendations if you want to rent in a diverse area near or in ATL with good diverse public schools (elementary)and an hour or less from airport ? A place that is updated and nice like you described
Norcross GA, right outside of Atl
I would recommend Gwinnett or Cobb as it pertains to school systems . They are not close fo Atl but it’s worth it for the education.
@@VashtiAmon thank you
I stayed in Atlanta for a few months to get a feel for the city and I liked it and didn’t like it. I moved to Houston not long afterwards and liked it better.But while in Houston I wanted to check out Dallas bc Houston was fast pace and I wanted more opportunities. I believe Dallas has more jobs.
What did you get/ will you get your degree in?
You must not have had Pluckers wings in Dallas when you made this video. Best wings out there!
I love all of her videos. Like and subscribe!
Every state and country have there problems utopia doesn't exist in this world. Sometimes the insect's bits can be a major problem for some people like me that's allergic to everything. We can be dreamers or overly optimistic. Just be ready in all your life experiences to deal with the good and the bad. You must figure out the (bad) you can life with. I life in California. I've had to live in a senior citizen community to lower my rent costs. Which is a huge personal sacrifice because I can't move in family members that aren't seniors, that is actually a blessing, but a hard one for me. But I can live with it.
LA as a LA native baby girl im trynna get out over price, homeless rate is skyrocket the vibe has definitely changed
