Nice video but you've ignored some areas south of Atlanta such as Peachtree City and Fayetteville. Granted, these are older communities but there are some great advantages to them such as warmer weather and closer access to both the airport and Florida. Of course, the problem with virtually any community or city in ATL is poor local roads and the resultant traffic nightmares.
Thank you for watching. I agree that Peachtree City is great. In fact, we recently made an entire video covering that city. Thank you for your insight!
We moved from NYC to Stone Mountain GA and lived there for years. We recently moved to Cumming and it is a great town. I have no complaints I just hope it doesn’t get crowded.
Sarah (obviously not from Ga) is defining what we refer to as Yankee Avenue. That is the counties North of Atlanta, where the relocated Northerners moved into. Everything there is expensive. All housing there is above $600k +, and the traffic is horrible, as your fighting the other million people trying to get to the same ball game or, school, or work, or music event, or the lake... your life is spent "in traffic" I'm talking creeping along, bumper to bumper traffic. Areas to the East, or South or West of Hartsfield are easier stress wise, and generally cost less. Don't be lured in to the "Revitalizing Atlanta" market as that has been a complete bust. Prospective buyers paid 1/2 million for revamped, 2 bedroom, 700 sq/ft homes, in very low rent neighborhoods in the city, and lost their shirt in the process. It was a dumb idea, that just proceeded down the road to failure, but its still being pushed by Fulton county.
Wow, excellent video. I moved to Alpharetta in 1990 and moved a bit North to South Forsyth County in 1996. I’ve since left the area in 2016 and found a small town Like Alpharetta used to be. It was really nice seeing all the changes.
Have to admit that Dawsonville sounds the most appealing, but our family, friends and church are all in the Norcross/Duluth/Stone Mountain area, so we’ll likely be going closer in.
If you buy in Suwanee make sure you buy within the city limits and make sure you are zoned for North Gwinnett school cluster. YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE EAST OF I-85 or ZONED FOR COLLINS HILL HIGH SCHOOL.
Very noticeable snub of Roswell. The only town regularly listed as the best place to live in GA. I would say both Roswell and Milton have advantages over Alpharetta… which is nice… but has an identity complex.
Absolutely not true, since the Yankees relocated here in the 90s... and South Carolina. I'm 7th generation from the Atlanta area, I seen it all... grew up in Marietta. They attempted to make Georgia what they called "Black Mecca", through government funded relocation. For some reason the Washington DC folk, still assumed Georgia was still in Reconstruction. It simply made a mess of Fulton, Dekalb, Douglas Counties. The Federal government is still very focused on forcing integration into rural communities in Georgia. It usually comes with the expense of high crime, and falsely overvalued properties, which lead to high taxes. .... I bought a home in rural West Ga in the late 90s for under $100k, it remind in that range for almost two decades, since 2020, that homes value has jumped to $300k according to county revaluation. Somethings wrong with that rapid a rise in value over just 4 years.
Tucker is convenient to a lot of good places like Buckhead, Perimeter and Atlanta. Those that I know that live there like it but they don’t have kids. The schools are not good at all.
Chamblee Tucker is quite busy (just off of 285) its where most Asians relocated to, in the 1990s. it Also has a large Latino population. Heavy traffic, fairly crime ridden by now.
Avoid HOAs in Georgia. They have too much legal power, and they like to wield it. They are not completely insane, but headed in that direction. HOA Fees here are about 2K/yr
@@Mr.Atlanta850 wow you are a southern foreal y’all folks definitely don’t like for people to keep it real don’t be getting mad because I’m telling the truth like it is Georgia and Florida suck period and the rest of the South Texas is the best state for the south you living in a different planet than I am I’m assuming because Georgia sucks balls just like Alabama what will happen if you take Atlanta away it will be just like the neighboring states of Mississippi and Alabama but I really don’t care about these places I’m moving to the richest county in America which Georgia don’t even stand a chance against Virginia or DMV the people there are more successful and educated Atlanta is a nasty 🤢 crime ridden dump of a community that doesn’t care about anything other than having the highest HIV infections in the south please tell me what y’all got on Florida or where I’m from in Maryland
@@Mr.Atlanta850 no its definitely not all that better than its neighboring states you obviously haven’t been anywhere im only 22 and I’ve been to all of the 50 states and I will like to let you know Georgia not on top its 2024🤢 you obviously don't know nothing about Georgia

Hush. We’re keeping the area a secret.

Huh? You must be new here. Born and raised in Georgia. Thanks for watching!

But you didn't mention where the worst suburbs are in your video. 🤨
Alpharetta also has a Costco.

You have tons of great options. I would love to be your realtor! You can reach me directly at 470-577-6472 or hello@keypointhomesgroup.com

We live in South Forsyth (Cumming) and love it. Great schools, very affluent and safe.
Thanks 👍🏽
You bet
Very noticeable snub of Roswell. The only town regularly listed as the best place to live in GA. I would say both Roswell and Milton have advantages over Alpharetta… which is nice… but has an identity complex.
My brother bought his home in Johns creek for 289k in 2018😢
That's a steal!
SWANI? Where did you say you are from?
Suwannee, cumming and Alpharetta maybe rosewell if you have some money 😂

Duluth is my go to area.
The title should read north metro Atlanta
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for not mentioning marietta lol
Lol
😂 I didn’t care for Marietta back when it was nice!
How about canton? Thinking to take a job there
Canton is great! I'd love to help you make the move if you end up here! You can reach me at hello@keypointhomesgroup.com or 470-577-6472.
Canton if you focus on the West, if far better than Yankee Avenue defined in this video. Canton is more rural.
What are your thoughts on Tucker, GA?
Not recommend
Tucker is convenient to a lot of good places like Buckhead, Perimeter and Atlanta. Those that I know that live there like it but they don’t have kids. The schools are not good at all.
Chamblee Tucker is quite busy (just off of 285) its where most Asians relocated to, in the 1990s. it Also has a large Latino population. Heavy traffic, fairly crime ridden by now.
@@tjhessmon4327 correct!
Every place to live is going to have an H.O.A.
Can’t escape them
They are plentiful and yet there are still many homes in neighborhoods without HOA's...just depends what you want!
Avoid HOAs in Georgia. They have too much legal power, and they like to wield it. They are not completely insane, but headed in that direction. HOA Fees here are about 2K/yr
Georgia is alot like alabama and south Carolina
🙄 NO it's not.
It's 10000 time better with More to offer.
