We also have an abundance of green space and really low cost of living. Personally, I love Atlanta, and I wish people would stop putting it down all the time. Could be a really great city with a little more love.
It's funny how in Atlanta you can tell the people that love cars and never take the train. They say things like "the public transit system only goes every 20 minutes". Just because you ride the train once to a football game and it was slow doesn't mean it's like that every day. During rush hour on business days the train runs 2-5 minutes.

Oh, the route I was thinking of was Gold Line past Lindbergh on the weekends, or to the airport all week.
It does get faster on the weekdays (every 12 minutes?) if you're closer to downtown, but how much of the customer base is that?

Yeah, what is that? "The great thing about living in Atlanta is that it's so easy to leave!"
I guess that's because of our famous busiest airport in the world! Too bad if you want to go anywhere in the city, though.
The public transit system only goes every 20 minutes in a + shape, makes everyone coming from the airport buy an NFC card, and the speakers and upcoming train monitors in every station are unusable and broken. People in Atlanta like driving so much they force everyone else to do it along with them.
