Hi there,
I'm weighing out the pros and cons between these 4 cities. San Diego, Miami, Atlanta, Stamford CT. What I want out of a city is metropolitan, diverse, culture, and affordable. Beach is a heavily weighted plus. Any insights into these 4 options would be GREATLY appreciated!

Affordable limits you to Atlanta out of that list, that I can say

Define "affordable". What is your budget?

Do have jobs lined up in all four cities? If not, what type of work will you be looking for?

Will you be renting or buying? What is your anticipated maximum housing budget?

Which of the four cities have you already visited, and what did you like/dislike during your visit(s)?

I think you're being silly. I happen to live in Stamford, and while I'm not all that familiar with the other cities, to compare Stamford with them is beyond a stretch. You know that Stamford has a pop of 120,000 right? And the Long Island Sounds beaches are not quite up to ocean beaches. In fact, it flunks out in most of your criteria, except "diversity" I suppose.

And what beach were you planning to visit in Atlanta?
