Relocating to Alpharetta/Duluth/Suwanee area... HELP PLEASE!!! (Atlanta: apartments, hotel)

Posting again in hopes for assistance... :-)


I'll be starting a new job in Alpharetta in two weeks and need to find a place to stay shortly after my arrival. From reading the posts on here, it looks like Duluth and Suwanee are less expensive than Alpharetta, and may provide a better alternative.

I'll be renting (house or apt doesn't matter) and need to stay at or below $700. It looks like it is possible to get an apartment in Alpharetta for that, but if I can get a place even cheaper just a little further a way that would be fine as well.

I'll be staying in a hotel/motel for the first week or two, but as that will get rather pricey, I'd like to move in as quickly as possible.

I've only been to Georgia once and have absolutely no friends there to ask for assistance. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks again!!!

I'd still try and live close to where you work. Depending on where you work in Alpharetta commuting to Duluth and Suwanee in gas can eat up your time and rent savings.

Forgot to add you probably will get a better response if you post in the Atlanta thread. Craigslist is a good place to look
for apartments, roommates etc.
