I’m finding it impossible to believe that 13% number. Like how.
That’s just the nationwide percentage though, population just shifts towards cities.

Yeah fair. We looked hard at that Cochise (sp?) area when we fled Buckhead. As I recall, a couple of really great pockets but they're small so there just wasn't ever a lot on the market.
The biggest problem I have with Vinings is schools are okay-to-lousy (Campbell district).

I'm pretty narrow minded. But my take: East Cobb, Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Milton, Brookhaven.
I’d add Vinings into this mix.

Whole Foods on the corner of Roswell Rd and Johnson Ferry. That is the center of the East Cobb Universe.
It's a fact. Black Science Guy triangulated it.
In my day it was the Starbucks on the north side of Roswell (Walton hangout central :lol:)

I would say probably Walton to Indian Hills/Paper Mill area. But, admittedly, I've never lived there and didn't grow up there. But I'm contrasting it with say, Post Oak Tritt area.
I'd consider it pretty much everything east of Old Canton Road/Holly Springs Road.

By 2005, East Cobb was pretty much built out, and the malignant sprawl moved to West Cobb, my homeland.
Today East Cobb is still "nice" demographically, compared to many other places around ATL metro. I have always thought East Cobb felt plastic to me. Like cheap and fake and nothing of character.
Grew up in East Cobb from the early 90s to the mid-00s, it's probably "nicer" now then 20 years ago, with more Asians moved in to take advantage of the Walton district. That being said, it's still a sprawl-burb (and we didn't consider looking there when buying our house a few years ago).

If they were in there during the practice rounds, cameras were permitted. Phones are still banned though.

A July 4th matchup is impossible due to the bracket, they could face off on 7/10 in L.A. in the quarterfinals or the final at MetLife on 7/19.
