again a man like Martin Luther King Jr. Millions outside of Georgia know what school he came from.. You might not know but they do.. Morehouse College is the best all black African American school in the nation.. and there is no way that you can prove that to be wrong. People know Morehouse college. I was talking to my supervisor a couple of weeks ago and she is a white lady.. She was talking about how successful Morehouse was and how good of a school it is. Morehouse has even had white students graduate from there. Nothing you can say against that school

Now there are some nice homes in Sugarland, Missouri City, and Katy. Very nice homes in the Houston Suburbs. Even though we have a lot of trees when you move to the suburbs in Atlanta you get plenty of yard space even for the homes on the tight two lane curvy highways..
don't come close? i wouldn't say that. with the numerous historic neighborhoods around the city, houston can definitely hold its own

plus from what i have seen, both cities have many of the same housing styles. four corner, queen anne, colonial revival, eastlake etc

I don't know.

I would have to spend hours analyzing where each station is curently located, where they are lacking, etc.

They need more because it's hard to live in Atanta without a car.

I don't even know why we are talking about transit, IMO it's on par with Dallas.

Therefore, I was going off their word. 482,000 is still short though for a metro area of 5.7 M.
Umm NYC has a metro of 21 million and a city of about 8 million and only a lil over a million people ride it a day so whats your point ????

But, that is in your region.

In the north, it has no reach. Morehouse has southeastern recognition, not nationwide. Do you not understand?

i wouldn't want to be in no major city without a car nowadays because all cities are spreading out. Especially if you live in the suburbs like I do. If you go to Dallas or Houston there suburbs are spread out too. They ride in cars too. Riding in a car and commuting to work everyday is normal in all major cities not just Atlanta, unless if you live in NYC or Chicago.

I don't believe he has one. I always find it interesting that the most serious trolls never offer any personal experience or evidence of their assertions, nor do they even reveal their own origins or current location for fear of retort.
