AJC Pulls the curtain back on Kirby & UGA "Reckless Culture"

Yeah I would argue that these days “Atlanta” has extended as far as Cobb, Douglas, Gwinnett, Henry and Rockdale counties, but that is the hard ring around the city. And that has happened mostly from migration; both in terms of people moving out of Atlanta for affordability reasons but taking their viewpoints with them to traditionally conservative places, and from people mowing into the area.
When I moved to the area in 1993, “Atlanta” was literally just Fulton and Dekalb counties.
I Live in Sandy Springs in the Dunwoody panhandle. Things here have so drastically changed last 10 years. Crime in Atlanta was horrendous under the prior mayor. People bailed in droves from city proper. Getting a little better under the new mayor, but a long way to go.
