Good man good man.
Leon's is fantastic. I will concur that "Metro Atlanta" when you must include all of the miserable suburbs in Cobb, Gwinnett, North Fulton and Forsyth is awful. No culture, no hitsory (outside of a few pockets of old cities like Marietta and Roswell), just a bunch of planned communities of 7500 houses built between 1985 and present day.
I just try to avoid going out there unless I'm forced to for work or to see friends who have given up and moved that way.

Yea I feel ya. And most of the bigger cities you named have the same issues outside of their city-centers, some not as bad as others.
Atlanta's problem is transportation, and based on this past summer that ain't gonna change anytime soon. The good news is there's a massive movement of young people back inside the perimeter, so hopefully that will make a difference in a few years.

Yeah the traffic is a killer. In DFW you have two large city centers so traffic doesn't all funnel into one downtown like with Atlanta. Having all those people funnel into one spot is terrible. Houston has the same problem as Atlanta, though. Nashville is smaller so they don't have that.

Funny you say that, I was about to say the place I've been that seems like an even more exagerated, worse version of Atlanta is Houston.
Less history, smaller downtown, bigger suburbs, more freeways, more traffic. Just seems like a miserable place to be. I'm sure there are nice pockets (like Rice) like in Atlanta, but from an outsider (like many feel about Atlanta I'm sure), it just seems to have few redeeming qualities.
Nashville's great. It is definitely not a big, international city like Atlanta/DFW/etc, but it's got a great cultural vibe all it's own. I just don't really care much for Charlotte. It's clean and nice but there isn't the scene like Nashville, there isn't the size like Atlanta............I'd rather live in Raleigh than Charlotte I think.
