Northeast

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.

Northwest

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.

Central

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.

Southeast

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).

Southwest

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.
