What do I need to know before moving to Atlanta?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Atlanta, they said...
"Atlanta is a vibrant city with a lot to offer expats. Before moving to Atlanta, it is important to research the cost of living, as it can be quite high. It is also important to research the different neighborhoods and decide which one best suits your needs. Additionally, it is important to familiarize yourself with the public transportation system, as it is the most efficient way to get around the city. Finally, it is important to take advantage of the city's many cultural attractions, such as the Georgia Aquarium, the High Museum of Art, and the Atlanta Botanical Garden," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Atlanta, the United States.
"Internet is fabulous and there are excellent sites available now, expecially expat sites. Expats are usually in the know or they know someone who is???," commented one expat who made the move to Atlanta, US.
