There is no preference over North or South Atlanta. Both my wife and I are unfamiliar with the area except for College Park is where they chop cars.
We enjoy the outdoors, running on trails, cycling (Road and Gravel), fishing, and playgrounds for kids. Schools are important, but we also want to live somewhere where there are activities to do, restaurants, stores and is an enjoyable place to live.
PTC is literally a "bubble" that exists south of ATL. It has a lot to offer including great schools, but it's distinctly separated from ATL proper. Kind of it's own thing.
North side is more ATL suburb (unless you go REAL north.) Not saying that this is a bad thing, at all. Just that PTC is a bit more "detached" from the metropolis that is ATL.
