Living in Atlanta vs living in Seattle?

Next year i have the choice of studying in a university in either city. Whats it like living in these cities? What should i know about these cities? Is there a lot to do in Seattle? The weather isnt a concern to me since im from the UK and from what i gather, the weather is pretty much the same in Seattle as it is here (Rain!!)

One thing that i REALLY like about Seattle is the legality of marijuana. I am from the UK if that means anything.

HARD MODE: 'Atlanta has Niggers' isnt a reason

From what ive heard, Seattle (UW) students/residents arent very 'social' compared to Atlanta. To what extent are these stereotypes true?

Bump :)

Atlantan here.

Go with Seattle. It’s pozzed but don’t underestimate the damage niggers can do to a city. Seattle has blacks, but nothing on the scale of Atlanta.


Also, can’t do Atlanta without a car.

You think "Atlanta has niggers" isn't an argument only because you've never been there

tpbp

They call it the seattle freeze.
Don't know what the fuck that means though.

Seattle is a liberal pussy fest and is overpriced.

No one lives in downtown Atlanta except nogs and millenials with rich parents. Look for stuff in Gwinnett, Cobb, or sandy springs instead unless you really have to be close to your college. I lived in midtown for mine and it’s ok but infested with nogs and “liberals” whose parents pay their way and think life is just wonderful. Our cost of living is better and you can find actual southerners here too like me who are friendly and aren’t “evolved city people” or elitists liberals. We also have guns.

t came to Atlanta for college in 2005 and have a house here now in the northeast with a wife.

Coke-a-Cola is gross. It's hot. Traffic is lame. And well, Atlanta has Niggers...

Starbucks is gross. It rains. People are to smug to drive. And well, Seattle has fags...

Your call.

I went to college in Atlanta and have friends from college who live and work in Seattle now. I would say go to college in Atlanta. It's a fun, growing city with a lot to do. If you have an specific questions ask away.

Also, the people in Atlanta aren’t nice lol.
It’s a fucking giant glob city like any other. It’s not Gone with the Wind dude.

Southern people are very different from the rest of the US, but Atlanta is very cosmopolitan and has lost it’s “Southerness”.

The women in Atlanta are much prettier, but the men are also generally more muscular/handsome so if your spergy the hotness of the girls is irrelevant. You won’t have access.

Seattle has a bunch of girls that look like librarians, but since all the guys are soys boys, it was easy to get attention from the odd 7 or 8 I came across there. Repeat for Portland.

Are you a nigger by chance?

i'm from the seattle area and I know what that means.
it means that it's difficult to make friends up here

Seattle hands down. It isn't even close. Are you going to be at UW?

Seattle here ask me whatever you need. I know everything

Means people are not friendly here or "cold"

Are you joking?
Atlanta is FULL of niggers.
You might as well go to Detroit or South Chicago.

you would probably enjoy seattle as a bong.
but this trip is for education, take your ass to atlanta. see you in a year, natsoc posting.

Lol Gwinnette is the most diverse county in Ga and Sandy Springs gets shittier with each new apartment complex.

>Coke-a-Cola
Wow.
>Seattle has fags
Atlanta is actually top 3 and has more than Seattle. We at one point had more than SF which says a lot. Not sure if we do now because I no longer live in midtown.
This kid clearly lives downtown. Don’t. Live in the Asian and white corridor in the northeast burbs and it’s a different city. Lots of actual southerners here.

People will say, "yeah man let's hang out..." But then leave you hanging. Cold blooded bastards.

Atlanta has a shitton of niggers. Seattle is actually pretty nice despite memes.

Atlanta = niggers AIDS

I have visited both. Politics aside, I like the outdoors in Seattle with the tall trees and misty rain. Olympic Nat'l park and Hoh rain forest. Mountains are my friend. Pacific NW has way more beauty than ATL.

>Living in Atlanta

This, most people I meet in down town Seattle are either insufferable whiny pricks or tweakers.

>'Atlanta has Niggers' isnt a reason

Seattle checking in. Go with Seattle UW is a great school, and yes there is shit to do. Just beware that this is a (((multicultural))) city with libshits, shitskins, and nig-hogs. Just look into Greek Life at UW and you won't be stuck with all the anti-social chinks (which there are many), and yes the stereotype of folks in the PNW being socially awkward is true (there are always exceptions though).

seattle, its quite comfy here

I live in a rich area with nothing but whites and Asians. “Diversity” here means Asians. I don’t live in Meadowcreek which is the barrio you’re thinking of, and most people don’t. Try peachtree corners, Duluth, or Suwanee and you’ll have just whites and Asians.

If you go downtown, you’ll get the actual “diversity”.
>knocking sandy springs
And yeah I’d tell him to go to Alpharetta but a college student can’t afford that.

to be fair Atlanta has gotten less black the last 20 years. Still a lot of niggers though

It means people are passive-aggressive douches in seattle who don't have the guts to tell someone they don't want to do something with them, but then flakes out on plans made at the last minute while saying how much they really, actually, for sure, totally wanted to go for realzies bro and we'll for sure hang out some other time!
I hate them. They may as well be eunuchs.

You sound like a Vancouver faggot looking for a hookup. kys

>'Atlanta has Niggers' isnt a reason
go to GRSE Darien Long.....downtown Atlanta, nikkuh
youtube.com/watch?v=un-j42bu_VA

> you can do Seattle without a car
Have fun with that.

Also- Seattle is expensive as fuck and it's going up all the time. Homeless junkies everywhere too and the city is encouraging it.

Brookhaven masterrace faggot.

I’ve lived inside of 285 my entire life. Transplants have scraped away whatever WHITE Southern culture there was. That and everyone fleeing OTP after the blacks moved in.

Peachtree Industrial / I 85 North (the northeast area you are recommending) has more mexicans and gooks than anything.

Don’t fucking talk about Atlanta unless you lived here before the Olympics faggot.

Atlanta
-Can't get anywhere without a car
-Lots of minorities
-Big houses

Seattle
-lots of leftists
-rains a lot
-colder weather
-huge hipster scene
-more white than Atlanta metro region and far far less blacks. lots of hispanics and asians but once again not as minority as Atlanta
-good public transporation

Do you like cars? Do you like to drive?
Atlanta
Do you like bikes? Do you like to pedal?
Seattle

Emory and the UW are both good universities and usually in the top 30 or so.

Seattle is better than Atlanta.
>2 hours north to Canada
>2 hours west to the pacific ocean
>1 hour east to skiing

It is expensive, but if you are living at the school it won't matter. I want to go back to school but would never get accepted to the UW. No other universities in the area except for Seattle U, but it is a 50k per year private school.

I can't tell you which to choose as I only have experience with Seattle. That said, Seattle...

>Weather
In the winter expect rain, gets dark early, clouds, ~40 degree weather. In the summer, bright, sunny, long days, 70-80 degree weather.

>Housing
Seattle is expensive. I live downtown and pay 3 grand a month for a ~800 sq ft apartment.

>People
Everyone here is liberal as shit. Bars and random places have signs that say things like "No racism" or "Gays welcome" things like that. The comic book store I sometimes play Magic the Gathering at has a feminist comics book club, and there are multiple transsexuals who go there.

There are also tons of homeless people.

Whether the people are social or not, I couldn't say. I don't like talking to people, so I avoid it. Nobody tries to talk to me either.

>Laws
Laws are good. Legal marijuana (although that makes you a degenerate if you partake), lax policing, guns aren't restricted in Washington. My girlfriend works for the city government, and it is staffed by retards.

>Schools
If you are going to school here, UW is a good choice for computer science related things, and connected to major CS companies like Amazon and Microsoft.

From ATL and went to SEA - was freaked out by how many people were white.
> tfw I am white

If you're not a bitch it shouldn't matter.

I doubt you own a home in Brookhaven unless you come from a rich family. Apartments don’t count. And white flight happens everywhere. The Mexicans are all in the meadowcreek barrio which is off jimmy carter and that’s literally one section of a huge county.

I also was born and raised in Georgia and I’m not a transplant so tone it down some. Being from Atlanta isn’t something you should exactly be proud of if you’re supposedly a proud southerner.

100% this. I can't imagine how retarded you would have to be to voluntarily choose to live here over Seattle.

>'Atlanta has Niggers' isnt a reason

I'd suggest you go to Atlanta then. I'm sure your safety wouldn't be an issue at all. You'd love it since the nigger-count doesn't make any difference.

Very few people in the city proper are social anymore. Seattle. Fled the city last year. Born and raised in 14 years I knew one neighbor. Still in the shit county because of work. 22 more years and the crazies can have it. Lots to do, Washington natives are really nice, economic refugees are awful. It is all virtue signaling and ideology now with the transplants.

>Seattle has a bunch of girls that look like librarians,

Seattle and the rest of the PNW is pretty hipster influenced fashion wise. Plus lots of hipster trannies in PNW.

(white)Southern women dress more feminine but their also more overweight but at least less sjw.

Old south money can fuck right off.
Got my shotgun and truck in Gwinnett.

>'Atlanta has Niggers' isnt a reason

Of course not. You'll prove all of us ignorant racists wrong, won't you?

Thats like asking " would you rather have your dick chopped off,or get fucked in the ass?
"

there is no good answer.

My bad... I don't tend to count fag populations. Thanks for the info...

OP.... ATL has nigger fags. (There's one less in Midtown though!)
Seattle has Amazon fags.

Both Emory and GaTech are great schools. Atlanta has some of the worst traffic of any American city but great weather. Plenty to do and see. Unfortunately, half of all wannabe rappers live in ATL. Just understand, many of the blacks are probably much different than the ones you're used to dealing with. Also, they are in MUCH greater number than you're used to dealing with.

Seattle is nice but lousy weather and full of trendy, leftist faggots. Good music scene. Large Asian population. Soy boy central.

looking at the wiki page

Atlanta metro area: 50% white 34% Black 16% Spics and chinks

Seattle metro area : 68% White 5% Black 27% Spics and chinks

Kennesaw State Student here. Living in cobb county. AVOID DOWNTOWN if you have to go downtown, dont stay overnight, dont go out at night, and dont look them in the eye. If you are outside downtown, you'll love it. Am originally from rural North Georgia, so I still can stand these "urban" southerners, but I get over it.

Seattles is gay and wet

if you decide on Atlanta. you should move to clayton county. its very safe with upscale areas. Forest park or east point are very nice areas and we have excellent public transportation. crime is very low here where I live in forest park. its a 15 minute drive to the city and cheaper

Asians are super chill and that's mostly what you have in Seattle.

>implying I’m gay
I only noticed that and then googled it during college because I was astounded by how many gays were in midtown. If you look anything above 5/10 you will get hit on in by then even if you’re with a girl. Especially the gay blacks. This was also in 2005 and coming from a smaller town I was just shocked by how many homos there were (and still are) in a “southern” city.

> Clayton County
WE WUZ

To be fair, that happened down here in Southeast GA earlier this year. I remember seeing it on the news. The chicken place that the owner and her daughter were attacked at have pretty good chicken.


Downtown Atlanta is a shithole. However, if you can find work the suburbs aren't quite as bad (so long as you stay away from DeKalb and Cobb county. Also while you are at it, stay the hell away from Albany, Savannah, Macon, Columbus, & Augusta if you value your life. Half of those towns are like visiting a mixture of Detroit & South Africa.

>east point
>nice
Next you’ll tell him he won’t get killed in college park or walking near the underground in downtown

I’m from the white part of Augusta (Columbia county). No one goes downtown but the white section is a great place.

Apologies, I meant to say Clayton, not Cobb, although Cobb is getting rough...

>Being from Atlanta isn’t something you should exactly be proud of if you’re supposedly a proud southerner.

The exact reason I told Op to pic Seattle

You’re the one getting defensive about living OTP and the only reason I brought up living Brookhaven is that you were telling Op I lived downtown in your first post.

As far as my home is concerned, I own it lol. I don’t come from a rich family either. It’s called working hard. Brookhaven isn’t that expensive.

Op doesn’t want to live in the strip mall wasteland that is Peachtree Corners or wherever you live. No one does.

How are the Gwinnette suburbs you mentioned any different from any other suburbs of major cities?

They’re not, it’s the same fucking stores, same fucking restaurants. That’s not “Southern”.

You don’t know what you’re talking about.

Spit drink out on last part.
Then it sunk in on how close it's becoming SA.,Not good.

>HARD MODE: 'Atlanta has Niggers' isnt a reason.

Move to Atlanta. You’ll drop that hard-mode in no time flat.

t. Atlanta native

There are people receptive to socialising, you just have to be moderately attractive and outgoing. All the effort will be on your end in the beginning but once you make a friend or five it will be easier. Friendships can be high maintenance here though. Like relationships without the sex. Don't be offended that people have their own lives though. Honestly the city needs to fund a shrine to Narcissus. It would be one of the great public works of our time.

clayton county is a nice area
underground is complete safe. so is marta

Most people don't even talk about politics anyway. the meme of people shittalking politics to you all day long is just a Sup Forums meme. Most people just want to get on with their lives.

clayton is fine. cobb is like the congo

>Clayton nice
>underground isn’t a shitstain
Dude just stop

W-well, fuck you t-too.

t. Savannah

If you come to Seattle I'll be your friend, pal. I'm not kidding, just let me know.

Also, you have no idea how absolutely cucked UW Seattle is, I've been there friendo and it is seriously fucked up, tell you what. Still, I'll show you the good coffee shops and take you hiking.

He's not going to fuck ur boipucci if ur not a twink, user.

Fuck off nigger, stop projecting your hedonistic bullshit. Burn in Hell.

>Clayton county is nice
Holy shit no, I lived in Jonesboro for a year and I can assure you that you don't want to live south of the perimeter. Clayton int park is nice when nig nogs aren't blasting hoodrat music

Disagree. Go to Seattle and it comes up all the time.

Atlanta has Emory. See the chalkening.

The school is so liberal it became a meme.

I moved to Seattle half a year ago, I haven't made a single friend. My wife has it worse, she is very outgoing and friendly, but had her 1 day remote / 4 days in the office job turn into 4 days remote / 1 day in the office because all her team members live south of Kent, but work in downtown Seattle.

I think I friended someone on steam that also lives in west seattle, but I was so drunk I don't remember what I posted in that thread on Sup Forums.

I just wanna walk around north admiral at night with my Sup Forums buddies and stick "its okay to be white" stickers on businesses and street signs.

;_;

Despite the niggers and increase in libshit transplants, I love Atlanta, and Georgia even more. But I also live in a wealthy county that is majority white, then Asian and Jew. Honestly, it's fun. If you're right-wing, you will find other right-wingers, and they're fun, laid back people. But coming here to study at a Uni I'd advise against it. Even taking the niggers aside, the south does have "decent" niggers, but you probably don't have a refined nigger radar to be a proper judge of non-white character out here. And like another user said, it's very car dependent out here. Being here under circumstances like you'd be, you'd only experience a tiny portion of Atlanta, and it's probably a shit part.

Hate suggesting Seattle, because I truly love this, and I hope at some point in the future you will come not just to Atlanta, but to places where Georgia really shines, like Blue Ridge, hell, even Savannah is OK for a couple days. Actually, everyone should take a Southern trip at some point in their life. It's quite the place, and I'll never leave no matter how bad it gets.

But go to Seattle as a student, so you don't have to worry so much about crime and transportation.

>From what ive heard, Seattle (UW) students/residents arent very 'social' compared to Atlanta. To what extent are these stereotypes true?
Well, it's the South m8. No one is more social than us. We are hospitable polite people. If you walk into a hick bar, we're gonna likely be friendly with you far quicker than a coastal faggot on the West is. But again, I don't think in your circumstances right now you should do it. And as a Britfag, most Americans will probably take an interest in you anyway.

i seriously think Op is black

Stay the fuck out.

Seattle

Seattle will be much more similar to the UK if you're at all concerned about leaving your comfort zone.

>From what ive heard, Seattle (UW) students/residents arent very 'social' compared to Atlanta

Not sure where you heard this, but Seattle has something called the Seattle Freeze en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_Freeze

Also if it matters, Seattle is a bit isolated compared to Atlanta. The only close major cities are Portland and Vancouver (which is in Canada).

It means we're a company town that been influxed by idiot Californians and faggot Midwesterners looking for their ideal liberal west coast city. We don't like you. Stay the fuck out.

>Atlanta vs living in Seattle?
Atlanta is full of niggers, and Seattle is full of SJWs. Pick your poison. Yes, I've been to both cities multiple times, and I would personally chose Seattle. Its cleaner.

Gwinnett here, niggers are cancer in Atlanta. I'd recommend Seattle simply because I've never been and have been chained to Atlanta my whole life. Traffic is hell, i-85 and buford highway put mad max to shame, minorities are very clique, quality of the area literally changes from block to block. They're trying to make Peachtree corners nicer with the new shopping center they're building but it's a coin toss on if it'll be nice or just turn in to a shitty hangout for the high-school kids.

On the bright side, campus carry passed if I recall correctly so you can protect yourself from innocent bike thieves.

Atlanta = like outside I-285. Come to think of it, if you're not really a great driver, stay the hell off of I-285. People are crazy on there and the speed limit isn't enforced until it's obvious some druggie is going 135mph.

Everyone I know who's ever attended GaTech or GaState since 1980 has gotten robbed at least once.

Why Atlanta, though? You want more southern, more traditional & more fun, plus an easier place to live on campus & have public/campus transportation, University of Georgia in Athens is what you want.

>Seattle is a bit isolated compared to Atlanta.


desu unless your a wealthy hyper normie then in terms of socializing your fucked. especially since society has became socially awkward because of the internet making social interaction unncessary.

You fucking bumpkin. What do you know about traffic? Are there infrared cameras on your carpool lanes?

You will not live in Seattle. You will live in suburbs across bridges with hellish commutes. If you choose to live near Seattle it will be by Lake Union and you will be raped and get AIDS.

Ditto on what this guy said about Americans perking up when they hear a British accent. Your problem could be getting rid of the girls long enough to actually study.

This faggot will pay $2k for a 300 sq ft studio in Ballard with corrugated metal siding.

>People are crazy on there and the speed limit isn't enforced until it's obvious some druggie is going 135mph.
100% true. It's not even just speeding, it's literal stupidity. People are such fucking moronic drivers in Atlanta they will come into your lane without signaling going 10mph slower, causing you to slam your breaks. The amount of wrecks I've seen over my life has made me not even register them when I see them happen. Atlanta = stupid driving. Not aggressive. Just stupid.

that pic of yours, there used to be another version, does anybody have it?

Seattle traffic has nothing on Atlanta. Google it you faggot.

Op, you're not considering the size of the two places.

Seattle is small and cozy compared to Atlanta. Atlanta is like 3 to 4 Seattles and it's very sprawled out.

The places anons are recommending as places to live in Atlanta are far from the college I assume you want to attend.

These are the whiter nothern suburbs. These areas are 1 - 1.5 hrs away from Ga Tech and Emory when traffic is taken into account.

The suburbs mentioned are approx 20-30 miles from Atlanta city limits. So that means no city transit. Meaning you must own a car.

Seattle has excellent transit. It's also a big enough place to give you the city feel despite it being smaller than Atlanta.

ATL - southern girls that can put a wafflehouse out of business, niggers with attitude, clumatevhot as fuck

SEA - liberal shithole even more provincial than SF, weather is terrible year round, but if you're from Europe, it's SEA all the way. ATL is populated largely by country bumpkins.

>KSU
How good is that place anyway? Website photos looks nice, but Snapchat stories tell a different story. Looks like it has a little too many nigs for comfort.

This, Seattle has a bunch of places with little to no noggery.

Metro seattle is 5% nignog while in atlanta its 34% nignog.


jesus fucking christ if a third of everybody around me was a nigger i'd move the fuck out rightaway.

>Seattle pop.
>700,000
>Metro: 4.0m

>Atlanta pop.
>400,000
>Metro: 5.7m

Not exactly a huge difference

>Seattle has excellent transit

Not sure if you're including I-5, but I-5 has some of the worst traffic in the country

Also, RENT

Atlanta is cheap on paper, but living near the transit you'll need and in a safe area will cost you! It basically puts you even with Seattle since even the less desirable areas there are 20 times safer.
