From rich history, bustling nightlife, unforgettable soul food and lots of sunshine, the vibrant capital of Georgia has an incredible amount to offer.
The 'City in the Forest' meets 'Hollywood in the South' in perfect harmony. The array of breathtaking nature reserves and distribution of over 100,000 trees across the city is equally the home to some of the world's most successful titles in TV and cinema, such as Hunger Games and The Walking Dead.
With something for everyone, there's no surprise that people are packing up and heading to ATL. More than 730,000 people moved to the city in just nine years, according to the 2020 U.S Census – increasing the population from nearly 5.3 million people to more than 6 million.
This ever-growing popularity makes it the fourth fastest-growing region in America, which is reflected in the ATL housing market. Realtor.com's 2021 housing forecast claimed that the median house cost in metro ATL hit $385,000 in June 2021 – a whopping 12.7 per cent increase from 2020.
The ATL housing market is expected to experience one of the country's steepest rises next year. Still, with record-low interest rates, the city has been inundated with movers, buyers and home upgraders.
