Moving to a new place is great. Moving across town is worthless

Good point.

But packing sucks no matter where you're moving to.   Fortunately, I still have a lot of things still packed because of our move last year.

the weather is better how?  i mean, the weather in kc sucks a lot but the same can be said for both atlanta and h-town

oh, this comes down to personal preference and people like different crap?

clams, you've cracked the case.

oh we've covered the subjectivity of it all, already- i thought you were posting something different.  case cracked.

Paying professional movers to pack for you is an incredible bargain.

Thanks, fun muffin. The company doesn't include D.C. in the Southeast region. They've got all their federal specialist living and working there. I'll be in healthcare tech.

healthcare tech? seems like being in and around the research triangle would be good

There are LOTS of tech companies in Atlanta, more than you'd think.  Being close to Georgia Tech has to help.  I have worked with a LOT of Tech engineers, and they have all been great....very impressed with their alumni.

It really is.  I have to tell you, I think I like Atlanta quite a bit.

Boston

Less overtly racist but very very very segregated; NYC and Philly are the same way. The NE gets a pass on how incredibly segregated they are.

what's the appeal of atlanta?  i'm not down with the south, in general, but really dislike that city more than others.
It's the cultural center of the south and arguably the cultural center of Black America. Plus it would be nice for frequent travel. Those features obviously will appeal to some more than others.

Well said, thank you.

Atlanta and Houston would be great cities to live in when young and very annoying to live in with families.

They literally would be no better to live in than kc as a young person

If I were 23 and had a job I'd go right back to Boston.
