Moving

The hotel me and my family are staying at costs $1,600 a week, so we're moving next door to another hotel. It's a little cheaper.
I may not have internet access there so I may not see you guys again for awhile.
Not too long though, hopefully.
Have a wonderful day everyone.

still, 3 rooms here would be about $600/week in the south, theres cheaper places here too but I wouldnt want to stay there, the ones running $200/week arent bad, most of them are running a T-1 for internet, some have wireless and they're pretty roomy for motels...
it always suprises me at how much the cost of living changes in different regions

The rent is actually 1800 but I have a roomie so we split that in half. It's a 2BR apartment, nice sized living room, hardwood floors and exposed brickface walls, small kitchen. I can post pics if you'd like.

Jebus.... $1100 a month gets you about the same here in our upscale apartment complexes, the only place you'll find those kind of prices are in buckhead it's where the old money lives
yours sounds like a converted warehouse

Nope it's just an old old apartment building.

$1800/month could get you a nice house in the historic district here.
i remember paying about $2000/month for a 2-bedroom (well a large living-room as well that became the 3rd bedroom) flat in Copenhagen. now , not even $1000 for a house. differences in real-estate values are crazy.

vinings, The Highlands and several other places are going up, my last trip through atlanta I saw a couple new high rises and dozens of new apartment buildings being built, the revitalization in the lower income areas is doing al lot to improve the areas but many of those people are being displace and moving to the suburbs a lot of the higher income families are moving even further out.
atlanta is still growing way too fast

yeah, really. i live just northwest of atlanta, and its not cool at all. overcrowded schools, too much traffic, too many cops, etc. the area i used to live in was so nice 10 years ago... now our suburbs look like ghettos.
im looking to get a house in kennesaw pretty soon. a little bit further away, but it still won't help a lot. you know that paulding county is the fastest growing county in the country and has been for over a year now?

OMR, what part of NYC are you in? A buddy of mine lived in a place that looked much smaller than yours in East Manhattan and he was paying $1300/mo with a roommate.
