Best place to live in Atlanta for young family?


Travel Info
We will be a mid to late 20's family with one kid and one dog relocating from ft. benning, ga to Atlanta. Wife is an accountant, I will seek employment with local law enforcement depending on where we end up. Looking for a place that is relatively safe, good schools, house prices that match our jobs, diverse would be nice, close enough so I can take my son to some ballgames. Any help would be appreciated.

Travel Tips
Northen Dekalb County, in the cities of Chamblee, Tucker, Dunwoody, and (to some extent) Doraville. They are very diverse neighborhoods, close to 285 and 85, and the schools are great. The only flaw may be that the property values are pretty high, possibly in the 200s +.

or

Southern Gwinnett County, in the cities of Lilburn, Norcross, Duluth, and Snellville. Again, good schools and neighborhoods, but a bit pricey.

If you want a lot of property for a little money, I would suggest Douglasville in Douglas County, and Conyers in Rockdale County. The areas are good, but much further from d-town ATL. Source(s): Experience
Other Travel Tips
The area north of I-285, east of I-75 and west of I-85.
If it were me, I would relocate to to Alpharetta/Roswell area or the area surrounding Duluth. There are some reasonably priced homes in all of those areas, and all of them are relatively safe suburbs. They all have highly rated public schools, especially Alpharetta.

We live in Alpharetta currently, and have lived in Ansley Park, Decatur, Little Five and Buckhead. I feel the safest in this area. Our neighborhood is certainly diverse (every family in our cul-de-sac is a different nationality) and very pet friendly.

Wherever you decide to go, good luck!
South Gwinnett County which includes Lilburn and part of Stone Mountain, and Snellville.

*Great schools

*Racial, ethnic & religious diversity

*Great parks & recreation

*A true community feel.

I've lived in this area for 23 years & wouldn't dream of leaving!
In Atlanta , it's easier to find a job. But gwinnet is better for schools. Has great education. Very friendly people, good house prices(I live in a house with 4 bed rooms, 3 bathrooms, a kitchen, 2 door garage, basement,living room, laundry, and it only cost 140,000).There is a great park in Lawrenceville, Gwinnet. That has a lot of baseball cages and a pool. As of for jobs took my mom 6 months to find one.
