Atlanta has a Aa2 which PRIME and its outlook according to Moody's is stable.
Chicago for example is catergorized as negative.
Denver has a lower rating of A2.So unless Denver is doing poorly then how is Atlanta?
Atlanta was able to address and fix its pension issues
Quote:
Hailed as the most sweeping overhaul of public employee retirement benefits by a large U.S. city in recent years, Atlanta's Mayor Kasim Reed and the City Council reformed their public pension plan with an eye toward sharing investment risk with employees.
I remember I was in a grocery line in atlanta and there were a lot of people in line.... everyone was on food stamps except me me and bought a lot of food. I mean a lot... I talk to someone over and they were angry because they knew these people who are capable of working but are choosing not to to get government money... I think atlanta is in trouble... I hear LA has almost twice as much debt as detroit but we will see...
What neighborhood were you in? That might make the difference.

???LOL???Really?Thats how you come up with your assesment of how Atlanta is in trouble. lol.Not even worth debating.
Atlanta's economy is too diverse to become Detroit...it's actually one of the most diverse economies in this country...even moreso than cities like Dallas and Houston. Very unlikely.
