Oh VERY nice! I like that Cleveland is doing that. Schools are just SO much better up here!

HI! I am from Atlanta and had to post. Basically Atlantic Station was allowed Section 8 housing, Atlanta is SO dangerous, NOBODY rides Marta because you can get shot or accosted (RTA is SO much better!) and Atlanta is CROWDED!!! I like this city, I like Atlanta, but I rather be WAY out in the Atlanta suburbs. Reason #1 the traffic is hell is that people wish they could live in the city, but once they do they move back out. There are some good parts though and I may be back there one day because of family.

I have questions about this city that I can't seem to find on google. The first is who are those people in red that chant in the morning in public square around 8:30 AM? The second question is who are those random people on the side of the road with a briefcase and vials of liquid? They are trying to sell them and I am so curious I thought about asking, but you wouldn't do that in Atlanta or you would surely be shot!

We are 38 and 33 so "fun" isn't what it used to be. We like sports, outdoors and other intersting things to do. Not so much into crowded and smokey places, but we have more money than we did in our younger years so we like to enjoy dinners, plays, etc.

I live in Beachwood.

Thanks for all the driving tips:) The girl I work with has gotten 3 in the mail all around the same time. Doesn't even sound legal. I really have to change my driving habits. People in Atlanta are maniacs and you have to drive like them to keep up. My car insurance went down by half when I moved so it is doing something right.

Just that they aren't timed. I will be driving with nobody around and have to stop at a light for an ungodly amount of time. And there are so many....can't wait to take the Rapid!

Ha! I have A LOT! Why do people say "Oh I am so sorry" whenever I tell them I moved here from Atlanta. Is there something I am missing? I have joined a running group that I am trying to make it to;) My fiancee is from Mentor, but hasn't lived there since he graduated high school 20 years ago. He has lived in Atlanta since he graduated from Bowling Green. He was relocated up here with Cox just a couple months ago. I am trying to adjust with a big smile on my face:) I like the city...wish I knew "fun" things to do here. We are trying to get out every weekend. Any suggestions? And another question...what is up with these traffic lights?

Thanks so much for all the advice. I think taking the train will be my best bet. I am dreading finding out how many tickets I may have racked up this last month coming from a city that drives VERY bad!

Emailed her and apparently there are not enough people to form a club:(

:) Yes, I am a lost soul here. Good thing my finacee LOVES the Big 10 so he can balance me out.

Yep...$6 which isn't too bad. But, it will add up. The train was fun and I doubt I will ever need my car during the day since it is stupid to actually leave your parking space.

I know I am going to take a lot of flack for this, but I just moved from Atlanta and went to UGA so I am a huge Bulldawg fan and of course an SEC fan. WHERE can you watch the game with like-minded people, or am I just going to watch at home?

Thanks! I have taken it once and liked it. My fiancee dropped me off and picked me up since our schedules are similar. I will be at a loss when it starts snowing. I have NEVER driven in snow!

My fiancee and I just relocated here last month from Atlanta. I work downtown and it takes me 40+ minutes to drive 12 miles. I live in Beachwood and work in Public Square. I currently commute down Shaker to Buckeye...etc. I know there is no really good way to go, but if someone could please help me on commuting to work and home I would greatly appreciate it!
