South FL to GA (Atlanta, Valdosta: job, home, college)

[jackbowon]

We are thinking about moving to Georgia from South Florida, my husband may have his job transferred there somewhere in College Park area. We would like to know what are the nice areas to live and commute to work with no difficulty, also we have a little boy (3Yrsold) we concern about safety, school, neighborhood, etc. Thank you very much.

My husband & I, our daughter and my in-laws are moving to GA, hoepfully in the early yr. of 2007. We are looking in the Newnan area.
Anyone live or know the area well??? How is the commute to ATL? Thx!

Get ready for having seasons. Mild winters, but winters nonetheless -- anything above Valdosta, since Atlanta is pretty high altitude. Coming from the Northeast, Atlanta's winters are a joke, though. Last winter, it snowed for like 1 hour total.

Newnan is a little out there. I'm a Realtor and I'm not a fan of College Park. If you are going to wrok in College Park I would tell you that you can easily find a beautiful home in or around Atlanta where it is a nice home and you will gain appreciation value monthly. I would also recommend to you that you have a plethera of opportunities to choose from. It would be best said that you must make your decision based upon what you feel is important for you and your family. Tell me a little mor and I will be able to better help you
