Is Chamblee still affordable?

Longtime lurker here, The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem excellent.

I've been here 4 years and I love the pace of life here. The thing nobody mentions is cultural scene. It's manageable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the walkability is legit. And if you're into hiking, this place is tough.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The West side vs the Fairview side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Definitely worth checking out..

I've lived in Sunset for about 3 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

the quality of life is solid. When I first moved here from Baltimore, I was surprised by dating scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Good schools in most areas
- The traffic scene is better than expected

The downsides:
- Winters are long and cold
- Limited high-paying job options

Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for remote workers. No regrets on my end..
