I remember relocating from Memphis to Chicago and everyone and everything seemed so fast paced. The work ethic was crazy. I could see it in the malls and work place. The city just seemed very efficient especially when it came to business.
Driving fast isn't an indicator all the time. People drive fast in Memphis, Atlanta and Nashville. That seemed to be an indicator of driving conditions with longer blocks and other things more so then fast paced living.
Well if that's the case DC would be the fastest paced city in the U.S. if crazy drivers are the requirement.
Not.
DC has awful traffic, as does Atlanta. But so does every major city and a smaller city like Austin's probably has worse traffic than larger cities, does not mean it's more fast paced or bustling.
Yep. Faster paced isn't necessarily better than slower paced. Sprawl isn't bad, lower COL isn't bad but I've noticed Atlantans and Texans get mad when you imply that.
Sprawl is bad for the environment and not something to be proud of.
From a celebrity perspective I would agree Atl is probably much more lively but you're probably not as engulfed in the politisphere if you don't think DC has parties and events on any given night or day. Just this week two Embassies threw huge seperate Galas, just think about how many that is in a year The largest student walkout to protest guns just occurred here as well, I'm sure you saw all of the shoes laid out on the lawn somewhere in the news or social media. This week we also have the annual cherry blossom festival which is nationlly famous and the March For Our Lives protest on Saturday. There are major events that occur here all time, it's just not Hollywood related.
I don't doubt it. I would think that DC has that kind of atmosphere to some degree as well. Outside of the rallies, and festivals, it feels as thought you have to be "plugged-in" to have access to many events in DC.

Don't you have to be plugged in or be in tuned with that lifesdtyle to go to those parties celebrities are throwing in Atlanta as well?

Not really. Celebrities/parties/events are far more accessible in Atlanta than Politicians/Events are in DC aside from protests and other demonstrations.
