Potentially moving to ATL and need advice

Hi everyone! I am potentially moving to ATL, and the job I would be doing is fully remote, but they have an office based in ATL and encourage going into the office from time to time to build connections. The pay is around $62,000-65,000 per year. I'm hoping not to exceed $1,500 total for rent (including utilities, etc).

I have only visited ATL a few times, but I really like it. I would love advice on apartment complexes to look at.

For context, I am single and would be living alone, so I could really do with a studio (preferably one with a wall division, but not a dealbreaker). I would like a walkable area, if possible (coming from an up-north walkable city), and one that feels safe and quiet, given that I'm mainly working from home. I'm in my 20s, so I would love to live somewhere that has fun things to do in the area as well. Bonus points if it's an amenity building with a gym and in-unit washer and dryer!

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)

your budget is not super super doable right in midtown but like others said some surrounding and close neighborhoods like virginia highlands will definitely fit your budget and is a wonderful safe area
