I recently received good feedback from MS Atlanta, but still waiting on the offer details. Where would be the SAFEST place to live that isn’t too expensive (around $1700 or less)? I do have a car, but I heard commute sucks in Atlanta. Is that true?

Thank you!

    Avoid Buckhead/Midtown not safe anymore.

    Try Smyrna/Vinings area. It’s not too far from Atlantic Station (where the MSFT office is) and it’s quiet and safe!

      No traffic is like 18-21 minutes. With traffic probably 25-35 minutes.

      For example right now with some traffic it’s 22 minutes

    Buckhead for city dwelling. Northern Hotlanta burbs like Sandy springs, Marietta, Smyrna, Roswell for burb life.

      Yes Buckhead is safe. You could likely find good housing in midtown for $1,700. Less commute.

      Don’t listen to any housing/real estate advice from someone who says “Hotlanta.” Not trying to be mean, but literally no one who lives in Atlanta calls it that. Cringe city.

      Feelings hurt 😢. But yeah I didn’t live there long. During my stay Buckhead was pretty safe. Not sure if things have changed after summer of love 2020.
