hey what is going on everyone it's time to take a look at another city on this
channel we haven't done too many videos on the southern US and I figure it's
about time today's list is about the great city of Atlanta Atlanta is one of
my favorite cities to visit I've been visiting there since back in the late
80s it's got great food great people great history and southern hospitality
they're so hospitable when they insult you they make it sound nice I had a lady
after a comedy show one time tell me baby your brain don't work right
bless your heart see they throw that bless your heart in there and it
confuses you you think it was something nice they said it took me over an hour
to figure out she just called me dumb hence proving her point even though it's
a great city it might not be for everybody I always do a positive and a
negative video about each city state location whatever I do and I usually
start with the negative video so let's get going here's my top ten reasons not
to move to Atlanta number ten traffic like most major cities that have
had a major influx of people like Atlanta has over the last 10 years or so
you're gonna have traffic that's just a fact of life
what really confuses me that this has happened across the country countless
times since let's say the 1940s you would think someone would figure out a
way to stop this situation from happening anyway it's ranked fourth or
fifth as the worst traffic for a major city depending on which study you read
number nine everything's named after peach if someone gives you directions in
the city of Atlanta and it has the word peach in it make sure they specify which
peach peach Road Peachtree Road peach Lane peach tree lane Peach Street
Peachtree Street the Peach Pit whatever everything in this city has the word
peach and it seems like and I get it Georgia is the Peach State I understand
if you try and tell your land navigation system some address on Peach it will
probably tell you the city of Atlanta has over 75 streets with the word peach
in it and hundreds of locations you know that right bless your heart
number eight outside of Atlanta if you're new to Atlanta you've gotten used
to the people of Atlanta please don't think that's how all the people of
Georgia are if you leave any major city in Georgia it gets a little backwoods
okay not a little it gets a lot backwoods now they're good people most
of the time just don't go trying to bring your liberal views around the
diner and you'll be okay now if you live there you learn to stay in
the perimeter Atlanta is ringed by the interstate 285 a circular moat of a
freeway that separates the city from the burbs and further out the duck dynasty
types and before you comment I know those guys are from Louisiana but their
types are all around the south what do you like it or not I mean minus the
millions of dollars the duck dynasty people have
number seven everybody's a transplant if you're new
to Atlanta you probably aren't going to find too many people born and raised
since it got popular some years back all the locals have fled to the suburbs now
if you do meet someone you'll know it they identify themselves by what
hospital they were born at it's a thing I noticed this a few times and I
mentioned it to a co-worker he grew up in College Park lived there his whole
life I guess well most of his life I met him when he's like 30 he said that it's
an Atlanta native thing and they all do it so that's kind of strange but I get
it
number six the Real Housewives Atlanta has a Real Housewives show and by far
it's the worst of all of them this gives the handful of true Atlanta
housewives I know a really bad name one of those crazies released a dance track
called don't be tardy I would play a clip for you right now but I'm not that
cruel to my viewers my first question is who the hell uses the word tardy anymore
it's ridiculous number five the music the music scene is booming in Atlanta
and probably has some of the best rap and hip-hop talent currently going when
any city starts having any sort of music scene you get a migration of small town
17 to 30 year olds that are going to make it big in the city because they're
the best in their town of two hundred and thirty-four people like everyone in
Hollywood is an actor and is physically unable not to tell you about it right
now that's what's going on in Atlanta with rappers rappers could get arrested
for drunk driving and while in the back of the squad car try and get the cop to
listen to their demo
number four schools the schools are bad Atlanta there's approximately 155 public
schools in Atlanta and most of them get an F or a degrade the average school
test score is 44% lower than the national average in Atlanta now I did
read an article about some schools have cut their dropout rate in half over the
last two years that's really good news and it's a step at the right direction
the downside is the Atlanta school system has a lot of steps to go now that
one I usually don't like to make jokes about I really believe in good schools
and I really hope for the best when it comes to this one education is very
important number three crime crime is bad in Atlanta Lana is only safer than
two percent of the cities in the United States now that's not good considering
there's places out there like Camden New Jersey Chicago and Detroit gold chain
snatching and car theft are big things in Atlanta and even better the arrests
for car thefts are insanely higher than any other city in the u.s. now I know
what you're saying of course they have more rest because they have more car
thefts yes statistically that makes sense the thing is most of those arrests
happened within an hour of the actual theft everyone has a tracking device on
their car in Atlanta you're still stealing cars out there
you're an idiot number two bugs this is one of the worse most of the south is
infested with insects I come from two places that really don't have many bugs
LA and Portland in Atlanta you have mosquitoes gnats lightning bugs and
these things that look like cockroaches called palmetto bugs if you freak out
about bugs you want to move to Seattle not Atlanta they're everywhere
and number one the weather in Atlanta they have two seasons summer and
Christmas now I know it's not but it really feels like summer is 11 months
long in Atlanta now most people think that's a good thing and it is if you're
on vacation on a beach Atlanta is hot and muggy all the time it's so bad
skinny girls get boob sweat while sitting in the shade now I've noticed
girls wearing just tank tops here a bunch it's mostly year I've also heard
other girls complain that they're not even wearing bras and it's gross and
things like that my question to those prudes is this why is that any different
from girls in Vegas Los Angeles or Miami wearing bikini tops and shorts most a
year there is no difference it's perfectly
fine now the highest monthly average temperature in Atlanta in August is 85
degrees then sound that bad but it is when you consider that's the average and
as far as smog goes and air quality they've also been getting up there on
the air quality list in recent years it's getting bad with that and the heat
and all the traffic it's not healthy well that's my list that's the top 10
reasons not to move to Atlanta Georgia I will have the top 10 reasons to move to
