Which of these states would you prefer to live in: South Carolina, Georgia (WITHOUT METRO ATLANTA), Alabama, or Kentucky, and which factors make it this way?
Population:
SC: 4.89 million
AL: 4.85 million
GA: 4.50 million (w/o ATL)
KY: 4.41 million
% State Population Growth (2010-2015):
SC: 5.85%
GA: 2.15% (5.43% with metro Atlanta)
KY: 1.98%
AL: 1.65%
I'd prefer South Carolina probably, for the history, historic metros, beach, and upstate cute hills. 2nd is Kentucky, for the scenery (beautiful state), and its metros Louisville and south side Cinci have a little bit of Midwest feel which adds something interesting to the state that the others don't have.
Location: Metro Atlanta (Sandy Springs), by way of Macon, GA

True, but Macon is one of the few places where the CSA is more telling of the true size than the MSA. In most places the CSA stretches out and includes areas that dont truly really feel part of the area. For some reason, Macon and Warner Robins have their own MSAs, so the 2 locations you see below are "technically" not in the same MSA even though they're 1.4 miles apart, pretty silly right
