So is it really unadvisable to move to Atlanta?

[AtomicUse]

OP you’re a female right? If you want to come check Atlanta out for the weekend, I stay in the middle of downtown. I could give you a tour of the city and try to link you with some people. But you gotta send me a pic so I can see if I will too busy or not to help you

I’ve been contemplating just leaving in the night and going, just to follow my dreams of independence but based on past posts many of you advise against the mass migration to the A.

Have any of you ever just pack up a bag and leave without intentions of returning? How did it go for you?

How about dropping some more pics like the one in your AV?

Don't move to Atlanta unless you wanna be in entertainment...

Seriously...

Like that Black Mecca shyt is overrated...

You better off going somewhere that isn't ran by Black nepotism and White money...

Go where you'll stand out and be special...Atlanta ain't that place...

Atlanta, LA, NYC, San Fran... is somewhere you go because you wanna be a star...not because you wanna start a life...and if you wanna start a life...you better go to those places with a job lined up and friends and family...

You better off going to a 2nd tier metro area like Raleigh-Durham

You can go to Denver...

You can go to Austin...

Atlanta ain't all that...really not....people overrate the place like they do NYC and LA...

Atlanta, NYC, LA are for stars...it's the playground of the rich and famous...not for regular motherfukkers...people in those places...that ain't stars...most of them are stuck...

This this this.

Atlanta, though a great city with a lot of shyt to see, is certainly not the move for regular laid back folk. You will frustrate yourself to no end moving there without a plan or without dreams of making it big...or some other lofty ass American dream story.

I would recommend, like this breh mentioned, Charlotte, va, any city that's not a pole city.

You should def put some more thought into moving. Changing locations imshouldnt be a pick up and go in the middle of the night thing.

With that said...Atlanta is great. Black folks every where and you will never run out of things to do. It has everything you will ever need.

Source: Been a frequent visitor and just moved here about 3 days ago lol.

Come on. Just give me all the shyt you cant fit in the Uhaul on your way back home.

 

[director_of_bands]

Just move to Charlotte.

charlotte starting to look like a gentrification utopia

 

[???]

fakkits always asking questions if they should move, just move gay ass nikka, get raped over there too, nobody cares.

smh @ you begging thecoli for acceptance when you just want to get your butt plugged on a consistent basis.

 

[Tiffrock]

You have to have a job lined up and know where you want to move... Preferably by your job since traffic is horrible or work off hours.

 

[606onit]

Man...if you got a college degree and speak English...you can go anywhere...

Aint it true. Former ESL teacher myself. nikkas dont get that lane yet tho so

I am in the Atlanta area right now. I been driving all over and the traffic is ridiculous. Its take 30 mins to drive anywhere on the side roads and 85 is fukking ridiculous. I am in some part called Sugar Loaf/Sugar bread something, was in Duluth, Lawerenceville, Suawnee and a bunch more place on the outer perimeter. I can't fathom how people like down here. I fukked up an got some p*ssy down here already but my nerves on edge trying to figure out genders and the gay boys out here strong. I do however like its a strong Jamaican presence out here and I see alot of black businesses.

Sugarloaf and Suwannee? Breh you waaaaaaaay out, thats like me pulling up in Plainfield talking bout I’m in Newark. Cmon fam, y’all folks kill me saying y’all visited the A, but you an actual legit hour car ride in traffic from the city. I mean Gwinnett cool and all, it’s diverse and shyt, but you gotta come a good bit south to really get the full deal. You in the Metro, but you ain’t no where near the city.
