Whether you’re relocating for business or personal reasons, Atlanta offers some unrivaled incentives. Perhaps best known for their Southern Hospitality, Sweet Tea, and Super Bowl collapse. Atlanta offers so much more to professionals of all ages. Here are three reasons why you should move to Atlanta Georgia.
Weather
This is an easy one. Atlanta resides in the heart of the south, therefore 9 months a year you’ll find most folks out on the porch, enjoying a warm cup of coffee in the winter, or an ice tea during the summer. There are over 343 parks in addition to some great lakes and rivers just outside of the city. Climate should be one of your top factors when looking for a new city. The Braves play outdoors during the best weather, while the Falcons, Hawks and newer MLS team play indoors during the colder time of year. It snows only a fraction of the time compared to it’s neighbors to the north. Atlanta is commonly called Hotlanta for obvious reasons.
Food and Fun
Food and fun, fun and food. Look around! Theme parks, Top Golf, Aquarium, Coca-Cola factory, and so much more. It’s a southern state, so you can bank on biscuits and gravy, fried chicken, and according to Spoon University Texas Fries at Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q! Sports teams lurk in the heart of the city, some playing only a couple miles apart. If you time it correctly, you can catch a Braves game and a Falcons game in late September. From the Zoo to the Ponce City market, this city is packed full of food and fun for everyone.
