You’ll hear it from folks who’ve lived here for years, and from the ones who just moved in: They love, love, love it here. And really, who wouldn’t? With its trendy cafés and boutiques, concerts in the Plaza, and cornhole on the Green, upscale (but never uptight) Alpharetta tops nearly every “best places to live” list there is and seems to get better by the day. And as one of the biggest business hubs in the metro (with 900 tech companies and major brands like Morgan Stanley and AT&T within the city limits), Alpharetta offers all the best of family-friendly suburban living, without the commute.
A few reasons why you will love to call Alpharetta home.
Here are some of the different types of living accommodations you can find in Alpharetta:
An equestrian center, arboretum, playgrounds and parks, athletic facilities, art! Wills Park has it all, and then some.
As cute as they come
Upscale retail & dining district with year-round events

Home to some of the metro’s most-loved suburbs, scenic countryside, and most diverse communities in the U.S., the northeast metro packs in a lot. From top jobs in tech and award-winning global cuisine to mountain-view wineries, waterfalls, and roadside boiled peanuts, you’ll find something for every taste and style.
Crisp air. Rolling hills. Winding rivers and the mountains just a few miles up the road? These are just some of the reasons we love the northwest metro—and why so many companies do, too. Home to HQs from Mercedes-Benz (minutes from the Chattahoochee River) to TK Elevator (with ballpark views as an added perk) the northwest metro puts natural beauty, culture, and top career opportunities right outside your door.
Spanning hundreds of neighborhoods—including 242 within Atlanta’s city limits alone—the central metro is home to communities of every pace and style. Want to work at a top tech company but live on a lake? Check out Brookhaven. Come home to a Victorian mansion, then head out to a punk show down the street? Try Inman Park. Want to keep chickens but ditch owning a car? Grant Park’s got you covered. Whatever your style, you’ll find a community where you belong.
If you’re a fan of charming small towns with easy access to the city—and a head start to the beach—Southeast metro Atlanta is where you belong. Here you can find opportunities at major companies like General Mills and Takeda Pharmaceuticals, and enjoy convenient trips to the ATL airport (perfect for a career in aerospace, or a weekend getaway).
From rolling pastures to gorgeous forests, rivers, and waterfalls, the Southwest metro’s got natural beauty in spades. But that doesn’t mean you’ll run short on excitement, because this area is also home to major movie studios, ample opportunities in wellness, hospitality, and the arts—and the epicenter of U.S. Soccer.
