    I went to Atlanta a few months back and in my opinion, it was the city that felt most like a "city" from my perspective. Sure, I was mostly in the Peachtree Center area (and it was COLD AS HECK), but still, I was captivated by the whole place. I kind of regret leaving the beautiful magnum opus of Southern cities that is Atlanta, Georgia.
