Home to some huge national companies across its modern-day urbanity, whilst also enriched with a deep historical relevance, Atlanta is one of those US cities that has something to offer for all visitors.
Based out in south-eastern America, Atlanta is the capital city of Georgia, the 24th largest state in the US. The city only covers around 140 square miles in the northern region of the state and is also home to nearly 500,000 people. This makes Atlanta the most populous in the state too.
Atlanta isn’t exactly coastal, being near enough 250 miles from where Georgia borders the North Atlantic Ocean, but it is lodged in between the Chattahoochee National Forest and Talladega National Forest, which together cover over 1.1 million acres of mountainous and forestry – perfect for nature lovers and walking enthusiasts.
Furthermore, Atlanta is all very well connected to its neighbouring cities, towns and states; Tennessee, Alabama, South & North Carolina and Florida. The Interstate 285, which is essentially a ring road, loops around Atlanta and allows drivers to travel both in and out of the city in all directions. There’s the main international airport right in the city centre too, which is truly a fortress of air travel and a hotspot for corporates travelling to the city and staying in either long or short term housing in Atlanta.
Whether you are moving to Atlanta, or only staying there temporarily, what’s key is that you stay somewhere that’s perfect for you and your needs. Ordinary temporary housing or extended stay hotels often leave guests desiring more, whether it be what they are equipped with, how much space they have, or what they have to share with other guests. Serviced and luxury apartments in Atlanta, on the other hand, offer an alternative experience, where corporate guests can live a self-catered lifestyle without any hassle.
We guarantee that all the corporate housing in Atlanta which we offer comes with a fully equipped kitchen, access to free Wi-Fi, an allocated parking space, on-site washing facilities and spacious living and dining areas. All of these features and amenities make living away from home much easier, and this is just the minimum that could be expected. Bookers can request that their serviced apartment in Atlanta comes with a garden space, a bedroom balcony, somewhere to hold meetings or even on-site gyms or restaurants. Ultimately, the options are endless when it comes to Situ corporate apartments in Atlanta, thanks to their flexibility, their locations near in and out of the city centre, and their wide-ranging features.
It’s not the typical city many consider to be the ‘hub’ of US business and economic success, but Atlanta should really get more credit. After all, the Georgia capital is home to many major international organisations, including the likes of Coca-Cola, Home Depot, Delta Air Lines and UPS. In fact, of all US cities, Atlanta has the third-largest concentration of Fortune 500 companies. The city has also been deemed to have the 18th largest economy in the world, despite being only the 10th largest economy in the United States. The Atlanta economy is deemed to be worth around $325 billion.
Therefore, it would seem the city of Atlanta already has the economic framework and stability which incoming corporates would hope for. On a personal level, business expats in Atlanta can expect to benefit from the city’s comprehensive transportation network, relatively low living costs and affordable co-working and office spaces. When you compare Atlanta to its American counterparts, such as New York, Chicago or Los Angeles, the city performs the best in terms of prices of property rentals, shared spaces, healthcare and even car fuel. Both business and general living costs are very reasonable and make Atlanta an incredibly attractive place to do business or start up.
For whatever reason, you find yourself in the Georgia capital, whether it be for a business relocation project, or merely for a networking opportunity, just know that we have a great range of business-class, fully furnished apartments in Atlanta that can cater for whatever accommodation requirements you have.
The very reasonable cost of living makes exploring each nook and cranny of Atlanta that bit more attractive. There’s also so much to see and do. Just to the left of the Peachtree Centre and bunched together are the World of Coca-Cola, the very popular Centennial Olympic Park and the Georgia Aquarium. Yes, you can imagine how busy this section of Atlantic city centre gets, but they are very popular for a reason. If you’re not done seeing some animals after visiting the Aquarium, be sure to trek slightly more downtown and visit the Zoo Atlanta. After suffering from neglect, the zoo was reformed in the early 2000s and is now ranked amongst the best zoos in the country.
Closer to Midtown Atlanta and slightly north of all the attractions we’ve already mentioned are the Piedmont Park and within it, the Atlanta Botanical Gardens. Together these spots offer lovely places to burn a few hours taking in the stunning scenery and basking in the great outdoors. Once you are finished walking around the gardens, you could take a quick taxi ride towards the Sweet Auburn area and see the iconic Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Park. Here you can see the boyhood home of the civil rights leader and explore the many emotional tributes and dedications to his work.
The last attraction we’ll recommend is just on the western outskirts of the city. The Six Flags Over Georgia theme park is perfect for families, home to forty different rides and spanning nearly 300 acres. It’s a great attraction to visit if you want to let your hair down and let off some steam after a busy period of working. All in all, it's clear to see that there’s more than enough for expats to see and do in the city, and all visitors need to do to enjoy it all is book a stay in a long term luxury apartment in Atlanta.
Making the trip to Atlanta from overseas or even far enough away domestically, will more than likely mean flying into the Hartsfield Jackson International Airport. It’s an iconic airport because it is often regarded as the world’s busiest, supporting the travel of an astonishing 100 million people every year. It covers near 5,000 acres and manages around 1,000 flights per day to over 200 different US and international destinations.
The airport is a true hub of American aviation, and nearby luxury apartments in Atlanta are understandably popular. It’s a ten-minute drive from the city centre and surrounded by the Interstate 85 motorway.
The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) is held in very high regard by both locals and visitors alike. The transport system provides the best options for getting around the city, whether it be by train or bus. MARTA-RAIL is in operation pretty much all day, providing services every 10 to 20 minutes.
Across its four lines (Red, Blue, Gold and Green), it offers the quickest option to make long to medium distance trips throughout the city. The MARTA-Bus system covers over 1,000 miles throughout the suburb and downtown areas of the city. The 100 different lines on offer enable riders to access smaller village and neighbourhood parts of Atlanta which the trains can’t reach.
The Atlanta Streetcar is a city centre transport option covering a 3-mile loop around 12 different stops. Services run every 15 minutes (maximum) for at least 15 hours a day, depending on the day of the week, and allow travellers a quick and cheap way to stop off at the city’s largest central attractions. It only costs one dollar for a one-way ride!
