OK so It's a a mid-size city city with about 109K people. The weather takes some getting used to. The city has invested a lot in new development. Is this normal for South Fulton? Any help is appreciated. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

Weather-wise, the summers are challenging and winters are growing. You get used to it after the first year.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.
I'm a data analyst who relocated here from LA about 3 years ago. The main reasons were quality of life and a job opportunity.
Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Friendly community, easy to meet people
- Nice parks and green spaces
Cons that are real:
- Nightlife is limited
- Chain restaurants dominate
Financially, we've found it challenging compared to where we came from. Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. Groceries are stable, gas is excellent.
Socially, it was the best decision I ever made. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
