Living in Atlanta



Atlanta is a tiny town located in the state of Michigan. With a population of 720 people and two associated neighborhoods, Atlanta is the 528th largest community in Michigan.

Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 10.50% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Another notable thing is that Atlanta is an extremely popular vacation destination. A significant portion of the population is seasonal. During the vacation season, the town experiences a large influx of people who take up residence in second homes they own in the area. As the vacation season ends, the population drops again, leaving behind a substantially quieter and smaller town.

Overall, Atlanta’s crime rate is one of the lowest in the nation, which makes a great place to live if safety is an important concern.

It is a fairly quiet town because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. (Children, for example, often can't help themselves from being noisy, and being parents ourselves, we know!) Atlanta has relatively few families with children living at home, and is quieter because of it. Renters and college students, for their own reasons, can also be noisy. Atlanta has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Atlanta than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Atlanta may be for you.

Being a small town, Atlanta does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.

The percentage of people in Atlanta with college degrees is quite a bit lower than the national average for cities and towns of 21.84%: just 11.41% of people over 25 have a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.

The per capita income in Atlanta in 2022 was $24,083, which is low income relative to Michigan and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $96,332 for a family of four.
