ok so i'm going to be moving to atlanta in august and i'm going to attending the art institute of atlanta so i need some suggestions on a good place to live in. my main question really is would it be a bad idea to live in midtown or buckhead if i had to drive to dunwoody to go to class everyday? i know a girl going there next year and shes going to be living in midtown, so i suggested it to my parents and they didnt seem to like the idea because of traffic. my second question is would dunwoody be a cool area to live in? and if anyone has any apartment suggestions please let me know. thanks.

dunwoody is alright i guess, lots of old people tho. I go to GPC in dunwoody. I dont think that living down town would be a problem. U will most likely be going against traffic so I don't see it taking you more than 20 min to get to school. U can also ride marta. There is a marta station within walking distance, and u can get a marta card. That would save alot on gas. Why not go to the buckhead campus? Its closer to where u want to live.

i dont think there is a buckhead campus. id rather live in an area with more students and people my age, but sometimes i have a problem being late to school so i'm trying to find a way to balance the two. i dont know what i'm going to do.

hahaha. i live like 2 miles from the mall of GA. anywhere downtown thats not ubsurdley expensive will be the ghetto. i mean i lived off of clairmont. thats pretty close to downtown. like 10 minutes away. but still, i say commute. and if you really want to live downtown, try a dorm hahaha.

gaaahh...i guess im just going to look around. its going to be hard to find a place with all the qualities i want.

I've stayed in down town for more than 3 years. My car has never been stolen. How much are you trying to spend? If you want to live with other students there are a few places that i know of that will charge you per room, but they come with everything possible(furniture, DSL, covered parking, work out room, pool, ect...). If you live in buckhead you will be over there with all the rich ***** in their Bentlys and ****. And if u look aroun you can find some good deals. I found a 2 bedroom right next to felini's in buckhead w/ water and electricity for $850. You just have to search.

heres what i want in an apartment:

- under $1000
- safe parking
- people my age
- decent driving time to dunwoody
- non-furnished
- washer/dryer in unit

if you have any suggestions of places based on that list please let me know. one question though, i know a lot of rich people live in buckhead, but how many students live in that area? would it be better for me to look more in midtown?

Nick

iTrader: (3)

does if u can pull the non furnished here is a place that fits your criteria.

lol thats the place the girl i know is living at. id love to live there except i dont have a roommate and im skeptical about getting a random roommate. i dont like the idea of having to live with someone i've never met before.

ok, well, get an apartment guide or look online. there are places everywhere.

R3DL1N3

iTrader: (1)

i know thats why im stressing. theres too many places, haha. but yeah i guess an apartment guide would be my best bet. i'm not used to living in a really big city so this should be interesting.

douglasville, 20 mins from the Varsity, and 5-10 mins from Six Flags. not too crowded, and pretty good gas prices.

Redline. I just moved to ATL, off clairmont. Actually I saw a black coupe the other day with 7thgencivic.com sticker on it at the International Buffet. If you need a place to crash while looking for an apt, you can crash with me, I have a 3bdr house.

R3D you would like my license plate HACK3R.

Heres the car I saw.

yeah, i was thinking about getting a tag that said R3DL1N3, but people would be like "whats r3dl1n3??" and then i'd have to explain. and that would get old.

SimonTek

I know what you mean, people read my tag as HACK 3R instead of HACKER. I would get a custom tag if I were you, but I already have one. I like them. One day at Wally World, I got accused of breaking into the car, cause he had a silver civic 3 cars down that looked like mine. I was like does yours have a custom plate, fog lights, and a custom plate?" he said no, then I told him not to accuse someone without looking first. I was pissed.

I live right outside of Dunwoody and I think its a great safe place to live. You could try Dunwoody Trails Apts. They are actually setup like townhomes (no one above you). I thin I started at 1075/mo for a three bedroom. Its quiet and there were some young folks that lived there. I ended up buying a house after a few years there. There is an apartment complex right off North Peachtree road that is decent rent. Both of these complexes are less than 5 minutes from campus.

I live at 85 and clairmont. Back in a hidden neighborhood. I get married this saturday, and move to california week from today.
