What is the best area of Atlanta to live in?|109825

Ive heard bad stories about Marta. I generally will make about $30,000 to $40,000 and based on my income I could afford $500 rent.

What are your suggestions?

marietta, GA all the way. everyone that lives here are young couples with toddlers or parents in their mid 50s raising their teenagers. there are no marta stations here but the gas prices are low. it_s a nice, safe, place to live and jog and very close to scenic historic places and small shops. georgia traditions are upheld with an exciting twist because of the youngsters that live here. you can glimpse people you know sometimes which makes it comfortable and homey. the schools are excellent as well. we are located in east cobb, which is the best school district in georgia. walton, which is ranked in the top 50 or maybe even top 10 public schools in the nation is here. lassiter high school, home of the lassiter high school marching trojan band, which won 2 grand national championships and over 90 regionals practices every day and can be heard right outside everyone_s houses. they still hold the record for their breathtaking 2002 performance at Nationals. no one has EVER gotten that high. the band has over 300 members and it is still growing. people move to marietta for the band program. sprayberry, kell are also here. all stores hospitals schools theaters libraries etc are clean and orderly and only a few miles away from any neighborhood.

Suwanee and Buford are both nice. Hall Country hasn_t been so affected by the urban sprawl. Hamilton Mill is really nice for families. Marrietta has a lot to do.
