I would take his word for it. He went to high school in greater LA area and graduated from college there, as taught there for a time.

With all due respect--you live way the hell out in Paulding County, which is more akin to rural Alabama than it is to the rest of Metro Atlanta.

I agree. Ive been saying that for a while. The older northern cities look down on us(literally and figuratively). They say we're not "real" cities whatever that means. They have this extreme hatred for the sunbelt.

Those LA pics are pretty tempting. I love the view of all the city life in the LA basin. I also like the Mels drive through pic, and the Concert Hall. LA's the best city in the US in my opinion, or close.

Two people who live in outer suburbia...respectfully, I wouldn't consider you to be knowledgeable about Atlanta. Fayetteville maybe, but definitely not Atlanta.
