Movoto came up with the list by reviewing places in metro Atlanta “in terms of criteria that appeals to young professions,” such as unemployment rates, the percentage of citizens between the ages of 22 and 29, the percentage of residents who have a bachelor’s degree, the percent of residents with ”professional” occupations and cost of living.
Sandy Springs is the “perfect middle ground” between small town living and adapting to a big city lifestyle, according to Movoto.
With a population just under 100,000, Sandy Springs also has plenty of shopping, nightlife and dining “to offer young professionals all on its own.”
