Oh man who said college park??? college park is GHETTO in order to live in atlanta and not in the ghetto you have to be at least a 20 min drive from the airport. I'm moving into a 1 br in the Virginia Highlands and its only like 675 and the houses in that area sell for 400 grand to over a mil. I chose that area because its a place for the "young professionals" as one thing I read put it. Theres a ton of nice little bars and restaurants in the area, and its only like a 5 min drive from downtown. Buckhead is a little more... urban i guess with the highrise condos everywhere, but its supposed to be nice. If you don't care about living near the city or having nearby things to do and just want to live somewhere safe then I would say Peachtree City. I'm not from this area but I just moved here and looked around a lot because I didn't want to to live in the ghetto either, but there area some pretty nice areas in atlanta. Also you could check out the Vinings.
