This is my top 10 list of reasons not to move to Atlanta, Georgia. Atlanta is a great state that I love to visit, it also has some not such great places and things.

Thanks for stopping by The channel, my name is Briggs and I make lists. Not just lists of random stuff, I make them about places in the United States (Canada soon as well). I will show you where to live and where not to live. I will tell you where to stay away from and where it is relatively safe to visit. I post once a week and sometimes twice, so please subscribe and enjoy.

Thanks for stopping by my channel. I post at least once a week. I like to get 2 a week sometimes that doesn't happen. I do lists about locations. I do both pro and con versions of each location. Enjoy

Travel books you need to read.

Do you want to make videos like I do on this channel? This is all you need:

There are 4 distinct seasons in Atlanta - pollen, hot, hotter, and Christmas. The humidity is there for all of them.

As a native Atlantan, I was going to come here and shoot down all of the errors in this video, but you know what? It's all correct. Everything is correct. Don't move here. Stop coming. We full.

I’ve lived in Atl all my life and was born in east side medical. The traffic is bad and the bugs can be crazy at points but not O.D. The heat isn’t terrible, it’s the humidity that really kills. I love Atlanta because you have two sides of the city. The complete utter city life where you can buy designer clothes, people watch, see you favorite artist, and so on and so forth. Or you can have a full on nature in-depth experience where you can climb up mountains that we have up in Kennesaw which is only an hour away from the city or go camping. It’s a lot of fun to be at and would completely recommend people to come down and visit and see what I mean

Atlanta is a total mess thanks to all the people moving from other places. The southern hospitality isn't there anymore

Born and raised here and honestly it's not how it used to be. And it's gotten too overpopulated these last 5 years..

I moved to Atlanta in 2016, and left the very next year. The people are fake, they are all worried about impressing each out, it's hard to get around even if you have a car, everyone is judgemental, the weather is always bad, the jobs don't pay well, the cost of living is rising fast, and the traffic is constant. It's a great place to visit, but not to live.

It doesn't matter what city you live in if you have bad vibes you will attract bad experiences. The opportunity for MANY great experiences are within Atlanta. The city is expanding by the day. Ponce City Market, The Beltline, The Westside by the New Mercedes Benz Stadium, SunTrust Park, Aquarium, Restaurants, Musuems, huge Malls, mountains, concerts, global conferences, movies and entertainment.
If you mind your business then I wouldn't see why other people living their best lives would bother you. I have lived here in Atlanta for 17 years all over the city. There are good and bad parts in every city. Atlanta has more good parts then bad. Coming from a country town in SC, I think Atlanta is the best place to live in the South.

Atlanta will be the new LA before to long, so hopefully we can sell our homes for absurd prices and gtfo

Things you forgot to mention...

1. Sprawl - everything is SUPER spread out and it takes FOREVER to get even a short distance at times
2. Pollen season - it thoroughly coats everything yellow and exacerbates allergies and headaches
3. Poor mass transit - for a major city like Atlanta, Marta is absolutely despicable
4. Racism - The KKK STILL has rallies in downtown Atlanta regularly
5. No water - Seas/Oceans/Lakes that usually make a city nicer are totally absent here
6. Poor/No Sidewalks - while it is improving gradually, many areas still aren’t walkable
7. Inflated rent - too many places charge like its prime beach front not
8. Sports - The teams in Atlanta aren’t bad per se, but they definitely leave you wanting more
9. People - not all, but still WAY too many here have a TERRIBLY over-inflated sense of self that doesn’t at all match what they have to offer. Locals know it as “Atlanta-tude”
10. Not quite “there” yet - Atlanta is a city with a LOT of potential, but still has yet to fully and completely realize it. It just always feels like it’s on the verge of “getting there”, but not quite.

Like living in L.A. is healthy? I just spent ten days in L.A. I could never live there. I could not believe the smog. Atlanta has a lovely spring, a hot summer, a wonderful fall, and a fairly mild winter. You are so wrong about the “2 seasons, ”

I love Atlanta. There is ALWAYS something to do and somewhere to go.

My advice to anyone planning to move there, secure yourself a good solid job, and go there with as much money as you can put together. Its a place that sucks to be broke in.
That applies everywhere, I’m sure, but it especially applies here.

I'm from the Atlanta area. You're wrong about the perimeter. Quite honestly, outside "The Ring" (I-285) is where the nicer areas are. Inside the ring is rather ghetto in most areas. Inside is where you're likely to get shot. The Hill Billy areas begin about 1 to 1.5 hours away from the ring.

I don't know who this man is and I don't really care. He clearly does not have his facts straight. I have lived here for seven wonderful years and I love it! If Atlanta was so bad as he would lead you to believe people wouldn't be moving here like crazy. Atlanta a great place to live, we welcome you!!

I'm from Atlanta, born and raised. All of these reasons on this list are pretty accurate. I appreciate this list. Maybe more folks will stay away for a bit. Too many people

Yes, please don't move here. Stay north, stay west, and particularly stay way west. We can exist here without you.
