    I now live as far away from ATL Ga that I ever have, about 50 miles! Atl is known for major sport teams, great shopping, great restaurants,great hospitals and doctor AND horrendous traffic. One notable is Piedmont Park which is amazing. It is in walking distance of the Atl Botantical Gardens. I enjoy living outside the perimeter (I-285)in a more slower paced lifestyle.
