- Atlanta is the capital, most populous, and primary city of the U.S. state of Georgia. Referred to as the "New South", and with a GDP of $385 billion, the Atlanta metropolitan area's economy is the tenth-largest in the country and among the top 20-largest in the world. Corporate operations play a major role in Atlanta's economy, as the city claims the nation's third-largest concentration of Fortune 500 companies. Atlanta's economy is considered diverse, with dominant sectors that include aerospace, transportation, logistics, professional and business services, media operations, medical services, and information technology. Atlanta has topographic features that include rolling hills and dense tree coverage, earning it the nickname of "the city in a forest." Revitalization of Atlanta's neighborhoods, initially spurred by the 1996 Summer Olympics, has intensified in the 21st century, altering the city's demographics, politics, aesthetics, and culture.
With an estimated 2019 population of 506,811, it is also the 37th most populous city in the United States. The city serves as the cultural and economic center of the Atlanta metropolitan area, home to more than 6 million people and the ninth-largest metropolitan area in the nation. Atlanta is the seat of Fulton County, the most populous county in Georgia. Portions of the city extend eastward into neighboring DeKalb County. The city is situated among the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and has one of the highest elevations among major cities east of the Mississippi River.
Atlanta was originally founded as the terminus of a major state-sponsored railroad. With rapid expansion, however, it soon became the convergence point among multiple railroads, spurring its rapid growth. The city's name derives from that of the Western and Atlantic Railroad's local depot, signifying the town's growing reputation as a transportation hub. The city quickly became a national center of commerce and the unofficial capital of the "New South". During the modern era, Atlanta has attained international prominence as a major air transportation hub, with Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport being the world's busiest airport by passenger traffic since 1998.

Wow Atlanta has grown so big. I am impressed, and so much construction all over. Have not been there in 15 years. Very beautiful city!
Very beautiful and very expensive 2
Yes I agree!! Very beautiful!
@@speak2me489 houses in the metropolitan are just around 280 - 320 k
@@herbertant4096 Incredible how we are able to look into the past in this video. The people in it had no idea we would be seeing how they live so many years later.
@@herbertant4096lol no, Alpharetta, Smyrna, Vinnings and Marietta have homes ranging from 500k to a million with the median home price in Alpharetta being close to 800k
Atlanta Falcons is one of my favorite NFL team. Thanks for sharing this. Amazing city!
What a relaxing morning drive! Haven’t been to Atlanta in ages so it’s definitely nice to follow along on this beautiful day 🙌💯☀️🌿
Yeah wait'll you see rush hour here.
This was on a good day. Traffic is a nightmare in the city.
Are you chinese or Taiwanese ?
@@sid2112 When I briefly lived in ATL, I just took the streets to work because it took the same amount of time as the interstate
@@tswagg504 lol very true
Brings back so many memories of living there! There is nothing like rounding the connector at night and you have a window full of skyscrapers!
I was born in Atlanta. When I was a kid in the 60s and 70s, it was such a cool place. It was the perfect size. The city had tons of character. It still does, but it's just different. Traffic of course is a nightmare. My maternal grandfather was a streetcar driver in downtown. My mother lived close to downtown and it was safe enough for her and her friends to walk to the movies. My paternal grandfather owned a garage and auto parts store where a MARTA station sits now.
I had so much fun partying in Atlanta during the 80s and 90s. There were some incredible discos. You drove past several buildings I used to work in. I loved downtown before the panhandlers got aggressive. LOVE the video!
Keep it going
Atlanta is my favourite state as a foreigner. I’m from London and for some reason I can just relate to the people and the place more than any other state, idk why. People are mostly chill and earn good salaries.
Atlanta is the city. Georgia is the state. 👍
@@morelifepodcast6942 wt georgia is the city

Atlanta is an amazing city ❤️❤️❤️ Greetings from São Paulo, Brazil 🇧🇷✌🏼
I really wanna go there so baddd
Tem brasileiro em todo canto.
I’m going to Atlanta tomorrow we gonna be at Atlanta aquarium
Bro is living in the trenches 💀💀💀💀
@@bigbaba6263 There is no gun fights in São Paulo 😂😂 Just in Rio
Atlanta is one my favourite city in the US, and I strongly believe that, one fine day I 'll get there
My travel tip is to avoid these areas during rush hour.
1. Downtown Connector 75/85
2. Spaghetti Junction 285 and 85 North side
3. Cobb Cloverleaf 285 and 75
4 Ga400 and 285 intersection
5. The top end of 285 from Cobb Cloverleaf to Spaghetti Junction. Help me out if i missed anymore areas.
Avoid Atlanta during rush hour lol
75 and 575, 20 and 285, just basically anywhere in the metro Atlanta area between the hours of 6am - 9am, 3pm - 7pm.
Siloam and Sideney rite. You're best bet is to travel on the weekends, which even that is not the best. Another idea, just don't take any freeways except for a few. 575 and 78 are the least congested freeways in the metro.
Amarion Gabriele. Atlanta's traffic is one of the top 10 worst rush hour commutes in America. Especially when you get the latest traffic updates from WSB, FOX5, or even on 11Alive Morning Rush with Crash Clark.
@@jermainesimmons2944 You get used to it.
Its amazing to see Atlanta again. I used to live in Decatur for more than two years.
Did u like it? I am thinking in living in Atl. Miami is too expensive....
Yeah...
@@dogbsas yeah i like it
ATL is growing! I’m impressed!
Nice, I actually work in Decatur.
it feels like im getting out the house! lol
Hahah! This is exactly why I watch these.
Can I ride with you 😍
Right!
Feels like I need to find you 😘😍😍
My dream country when??🤔
Wow! Went from Malibu, to New York, London, Shibuya and back to Atlanta all in 2h lol. Great video, thanks for sharing!
@@WalkWithMeTim virtually, on CZcams :)
Atlanta looks a lot bigger than I thought, Also noticed a lot of construction
It's been booming for decades. :)
About 6 million in the metropolitan area
We call it the five Metro County area Fulton Cobb Gwinnett DeKalb Clayton
Atlanta had like 7 of the top 10 fastest growing counties in the nation during the 90s. There is a lot of construction around midtown.
Bee America The metro area is more than just those counties. The main part of the city (what you see in the video) is Fulton and Dekalb counties.
Born and raise Atlanta within the city and we’ve never had such relax traffic flow like this even during the 95’ blizzard 🤷🏽♀️ definitely a peaceful ride downtown
Hey dear
How are you doing dear
I hope you are doing well,my name is Trent Micheal,I will like to know more about you dear, can we talk on whatsapp? or what's your number so I can just text you 😊
@@trentmicheal5144 ayo wtf
Very true!
Hello beautiful lady How are you doing today
It's one of my favorite places to visit!
I moved to ATL from Chicago in 2019, I hated it for nearly 2 years but I now kinda love it. The art scene is underground and just very cool.
Wow you chose a good time to go driving. Whenever I drive it’s ALWAYS traffic 😂
For sure. This was back in May when everyone wasn't sure what was happening. I had never seen Atlanta this quiet.

dude with all those road lines and yet there's traffic
how
@@ceberios just so many people moving through at once, but all it takes is one dumbass driver
What a beautiful drive! I feel like I know Atlanta like the back of my hand, though I've never been there. I dream about it all the time...my city in the forrest❤ I know this sounds strange but I feel like I've been there before, like I belong to Atlanta in another lifetime. I watch your drive around Atlanta videos nearly every morning! Thank you, this one was wonderful. Stay safe I Utah!!
And that's supposed to say J Utah! Sorry!!😊
It isn't beautiful when you have to sit in 2 hour long traffic everyday
@Hold Your Own Nuts!! I'm not even old enough to drive
I enjoyed the ride, beautiful, love it!. Very well done! Thank you J Utah 👍.
I watched a documentary about this city a week ago and it was also mentioned in a TV show that I have been watching and now this video! Such a great coincidence!
Anna Golikova it’s quarantine and now riots
A decade ago (a bit more) I used to be a wholesales salesman and it was my routine to drive up to 200 km (125 mi) a day, sometimes taking trips up to 1100 km / 680 mi when going back home. It was a hard work but the driving and attending several cities (around 110 cities for me, small to large ones) was very pleasant. Later, I've changed career and 4 years ago I sold my last car and moved from a country to another. Since then I couldn't afford to buy a car again (so far), and I miss so much to travel, driving, and discovering new cities and landscapes. So these videos are so good and so pleasant to me, it helps me fight how much I miss the road! Thank You @J Utah :)
omg those trees ... i think it is one of the most beautiful cities in North America
I live here, and I agree. Even though I prefer the country, I've always thought ATL is a very pretty city.
I always thought that if aliens invaded, they wouldn’t notice Atlanta because of the tree dome
I love Atlanta! I have a lot of family there, so I usually visit twice and sometimes three times a year. My favorite places that my cousin and I love to visit in Atlanta is Little Five Points, Perimeter Mall, and Lenox mall. I also really like World of Coca Cola, I like Copelands, and I like some food at Mary Mac's Tea room.
Hey dear
How are you doing dear

Yesss you named all the hot spots 🔥
Thank you for this. I’m from Atlanta - in VA- for years so far; and likely more years to come. Thank you for providing me a visit back home. Sincerely. I miss Atlanta.
Excellent videos. Love watching each city as you drive through them👍👍👍
Atlanta is a gem compared to Chicago...I love how clean it is, the many attractions and places to eat.
U have lost ur mind..
ATL can't compare to Chicago and in fact, are trying desperately to be a carbon copy of Chicago. There's always something to do, somewhere to go, and some of the best food in Chicago.
Some of the best Architecture hands down, History & attractions.
ATL put their Ferris Wheel in the middle of Concrete Downtown after seeing the beautiful Ferris Wheel in Chicago at Navy Pier, looking over the Lakefront.
Just say U don't like Chicago
It's my opinion and you're not taking it away...
@TheeOne4.44 why can't a person have a different opinion? If Chicago were as great as you claim, then why are so many people from there moving here every year? God, what a shit climate also. No thanks.
You are crazy as hell. Atlanta is one boring gay city. Chicago on the other hand…has lake mi. I’d much rather live there. I live in ga and is outsiders stay out of Atlanta nowadays.

Hello how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
Great job
I never knew Atlanta was this big. Beautiful city
Hi JUtah 😊, Awesome to see the USA city, beautiful and relaxing, went there before and this brought back a lot of good memories.. , now you are back to USA so hope you can come to California soon, love your driving videos 💖🙌, have a great weekend my friend !
Amazing how the shutdown has affected the downtown drive and businesses. I wish I could have the same drive view when I was a kid in the 60s to see some of the old architecture that was replaced by these new buildings.
This was great. I’d love to see you do more of the residential neighborhoods in ATL like Inman Park, Cabbagetown, O4W, EAV and all the way through Druid Hills and Morningside. The first time I came to ATL I absolutely loved how peaceful and wooded the city feels.
That's what I love most about my apartment complex. It's in the woods out in Austell off Thornton Rd
We're literally the Village Hidden in the Leaves
That's were we lived, Druid Hills. Traffic was awful but it was a friendly place. My grandparents were there also near Toco Hills. The city has gotten so much bigger since then.
@@overtheGarage-ue8lhand better I believe
Nice ride!! Atlanta always reminds me of MARTA!!! I miss you, MARTA
Watching this gave me the anxiety of commuting to work....
it's not that bad. alot of people take the marta
You should see rush hour
And it should. Pack your patience when you hit the road!
I came to watch this video coz l will be visiting Atlanta this coming January of 2024 from Zambia. Kind of excited.
love to hear why people watch, enjoy the visit, the american south east is beautiful and low cost 👍
The walking dead before the breakout
Yeahhhh
Hi Anna how are you doing
Atlanta looks nice
It's a great honor to be in Atlanta in 2018. I love this city
🍎 another nice drive.
Interesting to see downtown
Atlanta. It’s not often shown in
movies or other pop-culture video. Thanks. - Henry
Google movies shot in Atlanta.
It’s crazy how empty the Coronavirus can make a city look.
@Popeye Sunday...
It’s just because it’s early Sunday usually a lot of trafic
@@chafiaben2514 Yup that’s exactly why
Ik brh covid won’t last forever thou✊🏼
@@James-op3vx I said that too lol
I live in Marietta which is nw of Atlanta on 75 . Such a beautiful city it is. If you want the walking dead version, drive the Atlanta on a Sunday. I did one day and there was absolutely no one downtown.. cars, people or anyone. Of course this was about 20 yrs ago but still it was an eerie feeling.
Marietta is a great town
I was born and raised in Atlanta but moved a few years ago . I live in SC now . I'm so proud of my hometown . Yes it is the new south . I miss Atlanta so much .
Hello how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
Hi pretty how are you doing today? You look charming and beautiful
Fun Fact! Atlanta has a subway system consisting of four lines. Red, gold, Blue, and green. The two other modes are the Atlanta streetcar, and bus system
Atlanta is such a vibe tbh
Atlanta is huge city i love visiting there I went to Atlanta for my birthday on January 22, on the Friday night and meet my new friends who lives in Atlanta. I enjoyed it to explore more about Atlanta. I love Georgia. I will see you soon Atlanta
See ya soon!
Atlanta is not huge compared to cities like New York or London. Pretty small actually.
@@lordlucan3241 who cares???
36:30 Unbelievable that truck could back that thing through that small entrance. I believe that is the longest load I've ever seen. Amazing!
this was super relaxing. love my city
Nice drive!
I haven't story about Atlanta/in Atlanta. But, i'll move there in the nxt month 😂
Love ur video, from Indonesia!
Muchas gracias por este viaje...Excelente trabajo. ahora voy por el de chicago.

Hi pretty how are you doing today?
Amazing city!
This was a good drive, thanks. I love driving too.
Very nice video! I love seeing the ferris wheel
Born & grew up in Atlanta working in downtown, midtown, and Buckhead for many years. I'm now in Cobb County. But, this drive reminds me of Sunday drives through the city prior to 1980, when no one went to Atlanta on Sunday, except for an afternoon drive.

Amazing very soothing... Like rain...
That’s a great way to put it 😊
Great view.
I need to go on whatever day you went bc I’ve NEVER seen Atlantans drive so cordial!
Very relaxing watching this and as a native Atlantan, cool to see. I used to be courier so I know the city like the back of my hand. But man, could you have recorded on a more cloudy day? LOL
Downtown atl so hard to walk long distances, to find ant store, any restaurant, or any restroom. But surrounding areas are nice.
Wow, no traffic … Great video👍
I’m from Atlanta and I’ve never noticed the development of different buildings all over the city until I saw this video. 75/85 alone had like 10 new buildings being built.
I'm must've driven those roads a million times. I live just north of it. Why am I watching this? More importantly, why am I enjoying it?
From an outsiders perspective, it's a great city. I always enjoy visiting Atlanta!
@@jutah I worked in the city for 20 years. Retired to Ellijay. I think I must've spent maybe a year in traffic during that time! I was a big pothead back then too, and rush hour was great for burning a joint, no cops could get to you. I once was sitting in traffic, high as a kite, looked over and saw my boss in the car next to me. So I did the only thing I could, passed the doobie down the left hand side! He grinned, toked it, and tried to pass it back. I shook my head and lit another. That was a pretty good day!
I live right outside of Atlanta and I've been here many times, the traffic is not usually like this (It's literally just as bad as LA). It's crazy how Coronavirus has changed whole cities.
So much parking buildings, great video again.
Fantastic video
That 17th street skyline view... this guy gets it lol
I pretty much know the city of Atlanta like the back of my hand because I grew up and have my old roots in Marietta, mostly Cobb County. But I'm familiar with the major streets of Atlanta. That city is my original home territory.
I Love your channel!!
Ich liebe deine Videos, mach weiter so! Love your Videos, keep on ! :)
I love this video!! Atlanta is off the hook!!
Atlanta is the place to be, born and raise here!😊❤
Wish I can say the same thing 😔

I cheer in Atlanta and for my pep rally for my team we got to cheer in the Mercedes Benz stadium. It was super cool!
Great Video! You should come and drive through Charleston, West Virginia sometime
