When do the trees change color how much snow and how consistent is it? Ice storms? Do lakes freeze? When do trees get leaves back, High humidity compared to florida? Are there alligators!?(my dog got killed by one :'( ). Also ...i am half japanese and where is an area with alot of asians lol or just more diverse in general(gwinett county?) alot of hills?. And what suburb city has the most trees...like my yard is almost like a forest that would be cool...so i can experience the 4 seasons. Anyways that is all i can think of for now all i know is, hate it here to hot must move!!

Duluth, John Creek's and southern part of Suwanee are very popular with Asian population. In particular, Duluth, Peachtree Ridge, NorthView and Chattohoochee high school districts have over 20% of asian student populations. By the way, those schools also among best schools in the Atlanta metro.

Atlanta do have 4 seasons. Spring is very short but fall is very nice. Winter is mild, only snow around once a year. Summer is pretty hot from June to August.

Not Alliagator I know in Atlanta.

pm me if you got more questions. I used to live in Tampa.

Dear God, slow down.

Yes, 4 seasons. Rarely snow, but sometimes every few years we'll get a few inches falling at once, at which time everyone runs out and drains the grocery stores of milk and bread. The next day it's melted. Every few years we get one ice storm that'll knock power out for 1/2 day to a day or two. That's winter. Summers are similar to Florida. Autum lasts about a month, leaves change in mid-Octover to early November. Spring last about a month too, before it just goes straight into "hot".

Gators - very rare, and it's usually a pet someone let loose. Although with the climate changing (getting warmer), some say gators are migrating north slowly, so it may just be a matter of time before we do start seeing a few more here and there.

Gwinnett is the most diverse suburban county. Chamblee and Doraville are the most diverse (and Asian) towns closer to the city of Atlanta.

Chamblee and Doraville are used to very popular with Asian population (ten years ago). Due to increasing crime rate, most Asians has moved to Duluth/Suwanee/John Creek's area. Nowaday, you see more Hispanics than Asians there even though there are still some Asian shops there.
