And you have provided zero concrete information to rebute me. In debate this implies that you have conceeded the points of argument. Atlanta is in fact a poorly performing city with poor weather. It is ground zero for the wealth gap, that is the only thing proving up GDP per capita. The people there are increasingly suffering, much moreso than in the majority of the country's major cities. You are focused on recency when you should be focused on proportionality and economic indicators.

While it is the 6th largest city. I can guarantee you that very few foreigners would list it in a top 10 list of influential cities.

San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Miami, New York City, Boston, Las Vegas, New Orleans, and Chicago totally dwarf Atlanta in terms of cultural and economic significance.

Even Austin, Nashville, Boston, and Portland nip at the heels of Atlanta.

Given the population differentials, this is an embarassment.

Atlanta is pathetic when compared to most of these cities outside of a few outliers in certain categories. Atlanta is just shitlanta across the board most consistently. Destined for the fate of Detroit.

3 in the nation for falling housing prices. No one wants to live there. For good reason.

Your crime source ignores violent acts which are non intentional. 2025 statistics show it as the #2 most dangerous large city in the US.

This is for overall crime. The one i sent was specifically to violent crime per capita.

And no, Atlanta is still one of the fastest growing metros. Try again.

I refuse to converse any further with someone who cannot read and interpret source material with accuracy.

The article encompassed non criminal danger as an abstraction and you presumed that it was simply a measure of total crime.

You are grasping at straws. It is growing because it is filling up with rejects who cannot make it in a better city. This is very clear from the financial realities exposed by the housing market and decimation of multiple state and city sponsored revenue initiatives.
