Do what I did in the A . BUY the worse properties n the best neighborhoods. Have an achitect create your blue prints and use that as your model. That's my formula. My first flip I learned the in and out of realestate. It cost me 80 percent less than paying for tuition for four years. My return is greater than most college graduates. I turned off the tv, stop watching the news and starting to just look at properties and walk neighborhoods. I went to the city and looked up the urban development plan for the next 20 years and saw the future .

I moved to ATL in the 90s and now live in Johns Creek. ATL has everything a brotha could want. The thing is it’s not for everyone. If you are here to play games, do the strip club circuit, and run thru as many women as possible, then you are ok to visit but shouldn’t move here. ATL was changed by 4 major events. The Olympics in 96, the emergence of ATL Rap music, Katrina, and GW Bush. When I moved here as a 20 year old Clinton was president, Campbell was mayor of Atlanta, and JD was the biggest rap name. Freaknik was winding down. Buckhead clubs had no cover charge and closed when the sun came up. Strippers were DIMES. They danced for full songs and even kicked it. They were still straight, not these butchies dancing today. There were more jobs than ppl. It was the “Black Mecca.” The biggest mistake ppl make when they move here is thinking that because ppl sound southern that that equates to them being “country.” Lol. You will get got! And you’re gonna be bitter about it for a long time. There’s 6 mil ppl spread out across 10 counties, contrary to popular belief, this is not a "small town." I would advise ppl to stay away, because out-of-towners have ruined all of the fun. Buckhead closes at 2 now (thx Puffy and Ray Lewis). Selling your mixtape outside of Kroger is a job now. Teenage girls are idolizing these floozies on TV, because they aren’t capable of handling anything that’s mentally challenging. Let them continue to off each other in the hoods and now places like Stn Mtn (which used to be a middle class area for us), so that we can buy it up for the low and rent it to Mexicans. At least you know they’ll pay their rent on time. And don’t do business with any Asians-includes Indians. They don’t respect the way American business is conducted. I agree with some of your points, especially about the news, but keep this in mind if you’re thinking of living here-have a realistic plan and be about your business.

Honestly, every urban city has a ghetto so I don't understand his point.

Moved to ATL in the mid 90s, attended college graduated, job hunt and at the time i would say job hopping because I could have quit a job and found another within a day or two as employers were begging for skilled workers. I finally secured a job with a large corporation and live great for some years. Also, at this time manufacturing was up and America as a whole smelled like money and prosperity. Fast forward to 2005, and NAFTA hit the USA jobs was leaving by the millions and the ATL took a hit as well, Bush held office and somehow made matters worst, Katrina occurred and here comes my layoff from the corporate giant. I immediately realized that the days of job hopping was done as the staffing agencies now had lines of people stretching out the door whom was looking for work as well. I gave up looking and ran out of monies and head to the food stamp line. You might be asking what does Katrina have to do with Atlanta back then? Seemed like the cities that was affected by the hurricane moved to Atlanta for refuge and seeking work. Atlanta was not what it use to be ever since. However I must say, I loved Atlanta during that time period when it was the place to be for employment. The culture, things to do, the communities, cheap homes in nice areas. i since moved and only visit periodically.

JUST know when you come to Atlanta, be prepared to hustle, and make sure your credit is good, make sure you have backup money in the bank and please do not keep talking to Atlanta natives about Atlanta we know how Atlanta is we live here. Its your responsibility to make life better no matter what location your in. Dont get me wrong many people here are hood and wouldn't change for nothing. Atlanta is becoming more over populated and with that being said if you look and notice new homes have been built, and more warehouse jobs to make room for the high number of population. And remember that pay looks greener on the other side of the grass but it always meet up to the standard of living, so if you say to yourself its cheap in ATLANTA and don't have a great traveling Job, or web based job, or don't have a great paying job ready before your arrival that's making over 60,000.00 a year and making sure you manage your money well without any dept with great credit, then your good in Atlanta and you will not get stuck in ATLANTA if your money and mind is right.

I moved here when Grady babies were all over ( the rest of my comments below) . . . . When I moved here Atlanta was alive you did not have to go home. This is back when Techwood projects was still there. When you can go kick it at the bounce. When you can parking lot pimp in Buckhead. Go visit your homeboy on Bankhead. The real Atlanta shit. If you don't want to go home and go to sleep you go to Crystal Palace. I can't be a hypocrite because I'm an implant I was born and raised in Chicago, but I've had the most fun of my life in Atlanta Georgia. So all you people thinking about moving to Atlanta please don't, we don't need more traffic. But I'm here for life I love Atlanta. And I did move here before Atlanta live what's still open.

Atlanta has the good, the bad and the ugly just like anywhere else. So please don't act like alot of the drama you experienced while you were here doesn't exist in other cities. My question to you is, what did you bring to Atlanta, what were you expecting Atlanta to do, save you??? Alot of people bring their problems and issues to Atlanta thinking that Atlanta is supposed to solve their issues just because they move here. People come here trying to hide who they really are. They come here attempting to run and hide from their past in order to be someone new, in order to feel better about themselves through starting over or to be someone they are not because no one may really know about their past here and tend to act differently here than where they are from. Many use Atlanta as a place to escape the hell they came from. Atlanta hasn't always been known for having alot of gays like it is known now and not everyone who lives here is gay. Many people have however openly brought alot of their in the closet bullcrap and hidden secrets to Atlanta, especially people who came here from New York. Not saying everyone who came here from other places have or had bad intentions when they came here but alot of people ran from their insecurities and issues where they were from and brought that crap here all in order to live a better life and most have been provided that here. Atlanta is a great city and Georgia is a great state, your experience can either be a good or a bad one but nine times out of ten it depends on you and the energy and attitude you bring here.

1. The rent is not that high here. Especially compared to places like California, New York, and Baltimore (where I lived for 3 years before coming back home to Atlanta). 2. You mentioned that a lot of people here aren't from here (which is true) and then you say we're not friendly (which is not true). 9 times out of 10 the unfriendly people are the ones that aren't from here. 3. Zone 6 IS NOWHERE NEAR as ghetto as some of the areas like Bankhead, The Bluff, etc. 4. You had no car which meant you probably did your traveling on Marta so you were automatically introduced to one of the bad aspects of the city. 5. There's violence everywhere. And if you think the news was depressing down here, try living in Baltimore. I was born and raised here and I love my city with every bit of my heart. But the 'migrants' have given this city a bad reputation and it wasn't always that way. The mistake most people make is coming down here on a dream. Do research. Have a plan. Start sending out resumes and putting in applications BEFORE you move so that your plan is already put in motion. Temptation is strong down here. You gotta be strong enough to fight that temptation and focus on what you need to be focused on. While there are many people who talk a lot of shit about my city, there are just as many who speak highly of the ATL because they came down here with a plan and followed through on that plan.

Did you spend any time on the east side of town in areas like Inman Park, O4W, Grant Park or walking along the Beltline? ATL is a gorgeous city with more trees than any city I’ve ever been to. It’s quiet, but there’s also weekend street fairs for each neighborhood from April all the way through November. There’s always something to do, and the city is always changing. It’s definitely not perfect with terrible traffic, and a lack of public transit, but it’s a great place to live if you find your people. I suppose that’s true of any city.

Ive lived near Atlanta since late 92, from Dallas, Tx. Things have changed quite a bit since then. Traffic is 10x worse. Police everywhere now just itching to get you into the system and pay the big bux. Cost of living anywhere within 30 mile radius of the city skyrocketed. Used to be able to rent a decent 1br apt for 500/mth just 10 yrs ago, now the very same apt is 1150. I'm sure rent and cost of living is going up everywhere, but over 2x in less than just 1 decade is too much. I love Atlanta area, it's the city in the forest and a pretty place. Climate is just right, not too muggy and hot in the summer and not too cold in the winter, not as muggy and buggy as spots like FL and gulf coast.. North GA is just a pretty place in general. Really the only thing keeping me here is my elderly parents tho, once they are gone I will probably leave. It's not that I don't like it here, it is just getting too expensive and I have to hustle 2 jobs just to barely get by now, where as before I could easily make it with just 1 - 40hr/wk.

I’m from Los Angeles and moved to GA in December of 06. I moved to a city just outside of ATL named Jonesboro. Me and my family managed to be there for only 6 months before moving back to California but I had relatives who had also moved to GA 6 months prior to when I did & they returned to CA 6 years later. When they came back they were no longer just my lil’ Cousins who I used to play games with. They came back with ATL street mindset & country ghetto. The streets of ATL completely turned them out & they came back with nothing but stories about how bad the ATL is & the shit they got involved in down there. I didn’t stay in GA long enough to get a fair impression of it but based on your stories, my cousins stories and Darien Long GRSE! KZfaq channel ATL appears to be a ghetto, uncivilized, crime ridden Heaven of sorts.

I move to Atlanta in 93 after I went to freaknique everything was great people were actually friendly.it was a total culture shock for me as you can imagine I was raised in Seattle.. I remember being so excited seeing so many black people successful living theybest life I loved it I packed up my stuff and moved to Hoover Alabama where my best friend was from I couldn't it was too country love the people love the food just couldn't adapt to that lifestyle I needed some City Life. Now don't get it twisted just because I said people-friendly it ain't called the Dirty South for nothing! Alabama not just Atlanta got some hardcore killers...One thing I have to say it was very extremely easy for me to land two jobs like it was nothing. Most likely based on my "accent". I had this lady ask me was I British. Lol. towards the end of my time in Atlanta is when I started to see a lot of things I did not like, now mind you I was pregnant with twins. I met my kids father from Cali and I guess I was craving West Coast that's why we vibe so well. I recall us going out shopping at this big International grocery store. The store had a flag of every country up I used to love that place we spent hours there but every time we would go places on always catch other man staring at him even in church Lord and I heard now they got these gay churches....think one other person said Sodom and Gomorrah, that's the way I think of it now.. some men will f*** anything that got tits and ass and look like a woman so they don't have to say they gay. Look at all these dudes Young Buck that singer got caught in the motel they frontin like they didn't know them dudes was men they knew it's a tranny .going around in the hip hop industry believe it or not they so tired of getting coochie thrown at them they want something different I know what the f*** they doing! Some of them get with other culture women because they think they can get away with it easier they know we can sniff that s*** out. Black women better be on the lookout it's a lot of them out there now especially if your man been to prison. We 'all seen that damn video with that inmate bragging about him and some other guy turned this guy out.

I moved there because my fiance, who was born and raised in Pittsburgh, But he lived in NY on and off, wanted me to come down and start our lives together. My mom is from Macon, I thought they were friendlier down there. The way you described the ATL is the way I feel about Pittsburgh. And it wasn't really diverse. There were a lot of Black people who would just stare at me. My NY/Jamaican accent didn't help much. After my fiance was murdered in our house in Brookline.....I went back NY. And I'm a square. I was hated on because I had a administration job at UPMC. Most of the black people I met outside my job had fast food jobs worked at a bar, or cleaned hotel rooms. I didn't see how they were making it. And they thought I was all types of bougie.....

If you're looking for normalcy in ATL you have to go to Stockbridge, Marietta, Jonesboro, McDonough, and other cities surrounding Atlanta. Know that everyday that you're going to see phenomenal women. The key is not to try to screw everything you see. Then limit your circle....don't think just because someone may speak to you that they're your friend. Cherish your true friends in that circle. Also know that the gay thing is real. And if that's not you then you don't have to be rude, just treat people like you want to be treated and keep it pushing. Like someone told you....get you a fine woman inside and out and find a decent job and don't let your issues become hers and vise versa. You'll be fine.

Traffic s terrible out here and the roads are sooo fucked up that within a few months your hub bearings wheel assembly will need to be changed which will cost over 500 dollars.

Black people in the 20s-90s were SERIOUS PEOPLE, making moves that mattered. Young Black people often have pipe dreams, won't work together for what they want or need, and are resentful, bitter, & foolish. If our people would do the things that made us successful in the past (get educated, work hard, have real Faith real beliefs and prayer, MARRY & not spread children everywhere) we could excel...whether in Atlanta or anywhere else.

I will take your word for it.. I was visiting Arkansas and they got the Memphis news that's a rough place to.. I was visiting a very small town and very protective of their town and each other. So if you go there you better know someone.

People need to stop blaming the area because the area you move in is what it is. Its up to you to do your study. Stop leaning all the way on the tv or what people say about Atlanta. I'm from Atlanta and I learned that out of town people think that because Atlanta is southern on the country side of life we are idiot's. When you come here dont nobody from Atlanta want to hear you complain about the house you moved in. You made that choice.

Tone202. I certainly appreciate your video. You are a fine on the outside and a nice person. We people need stop being critical, and start the business of learning. I want to learn about Atlanta; never been there. Everyone has there opinion but critizing is so unexceptable. We as a people has got to get over that and hating because that holds us back. I like people no prejudices. Just saying. Keep doing what you're doing! I subscribed! Blessings

I moved to Baltimore from New York ..fine to me because I have the mindset of chasing dough...Baltimore to DC (& the counties in between ) are a gold mine as far as money to be made as well as cost of living in Baltimore is better than cost of living in the Bronx(where I'm from) & Queens (where I lived before coming here) .. some people is ignorant but overall I stay in my own lane from the nonsense..I live more comfy in the the county then what I would be paying living in the hood in NY
