kgblog series: City InSite post #1 - Atlanta

This kgbdeals blog series, City InSites, will highlight each of kgbdeals’ American markets — and we’re looking for natives in each to tell us what’s hot in their towns.

Atlanta, GA has been attracting Milliennials in droves in recent years. Why? Writers have a tendency to use the word “active” when describing the city; it’s socially sophisticated, clean, and friendly. The economy’s kickin’ compared to lots of other spots, with healthy competition for cool jobs. And god forbid you get bored, Atlanta’s the Eastern Seaboard’s transportation hub — you can get anywhere from here.

Diverse neighborhoods give Atlanta dwellers lots of places to be. Grab drinks in Buckhead, shop in Lenox Square, gaze at art in historic Castleberry Hill, and flex your foodie muscles in edgy, factory-revived Cabbagetown.

kgbdeals Atlanta sales rep Ursula Smalls, who’s been calling ATL home since 1988, tells us that “Atlanta is really, really diverse. That’s something we try to reflect in the deals we offer this market.”

Tell us, Atlantans! What do you love about your lush, southern city?
