How do I find a place to live in Atlanta?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"Came to visit first and looked at several with a real estate broker, always rent in neighborhood before buying, which I did," remarked one foreigner who made the move to Atlanta.
