I'm looking to relocate to Georgia. I'll be homeless when i go there. i have family there but i'm going out on my own. I want to know if anyone lives there and can tell me some nice (NICE) places to live? Somewhere i can go and get help? And if the job industry is good or not? How's the housing? Anything that will help me!

Time changes everything.
In the early 1990s, it was BOOM TOWN in Atlanta metro - labor in demand.
By the 2000s, and the dot com bust, slow down.
By the 2010s, unemployment still high, good jobs harder to find.

Unless OP has a specific hard to find skillset, she will not be able to get a job first. No one is going to hire someone in another state when there are plenty of local candidates that can interview on a moments notice and they don't have to worry about not showing up or moving back.

OP, go to the "General moving" forum. There are lots of helpful threads on what you can do and advice from those of us who have done just what you have done several times, myself included. You're not going to get good advice in state forums for moves because you will have lots of people who have never moved anywhere chiming in. You wouldn't take weight loss advice from someone who has never been fat would you?
