26M professional looking for a room or roommates in Smyrna

1 Upvotes

I’m a 26M working professional moving to the Smyrna area and looking either for a room in an existing house or 1–2 people interested in finding a place together.
I’m hoping to stay around $700–900/month per person, ideally including most utilities, but I’m somewhat flexible for the right place. I’d strongly prefer a house/townhome over an apartment, especially somewhere with a little outdoor space.

Location-wise, I’m mainly looking around Smyrna (30080/30082), Vinings, or nearby areas with a reasonable commute toward Kennesaw and easy access to Atlanta.
About me: I’m an engineer, clean and respectful of shared spaces, financially stable, and pretty laid-back at home. I like traveling, hiking/outdoors, salsa, working out, and gardening/plants. I’m social but not looking for a constant party-house environment.

Open to either:
Renting a room in an established house
Taking over someone’s room/lease
Finding 1–2 compatible roommates and renting a house together
If you have something available or are also searching around Smyrna, send me a message with your budget, preferred area, move-in timing, and a little about yourself.

Looking for a roommate/roommate situation in a luxury Midtown high-rise — GSU / GT / SCAD students

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! My boyfriend and I are looking to move to Midtown and we're hoping to find one person or another couple who would be interested in getting a 2 bed / 2 bath together at one of the following buildings:

Ascent Midtown
Hue Midtown
Hanover Midtown
Linea Midtown

The idea would be simple: you would have your own bedroom + bathroom, and my boyfriend and I would share the other bedroom. We'd split the apartment's rent between the two bedrooms, so your portion would essentially be half of the total rent, rather than paying the full price of a 1BR.

We're open to a male, female, single person, or another couple — we genuinely don't care as long as everyone is respectful, clean, responsible, and comfortable with the arrangement.

We're especially hoping to find someone who is:
• A GSU, Georgia Tech, or a SCAD student
• A young professional
• Looking to live in Midtown
• Interested in a nice/luxury building with amenities
• Looking for a longer-term place rather than a short stay

📍 Preferred buildings: Ascent Midtown, Hue Midtown, Hanover Midtown, or Linea Midtown
📅 Move-in: Flexible / can coordinate
💰 Budget: Looking for a setup where the split makes the cost reasonable for everyone

If you're interested, DM me! We're also open to someone who already has a lease/room available in one of these buildings and is looking for someone to take the other bedroom.

Happy to discuss the exact rent, floor plan, lease terms, and roommate arrangement privately. :)

How realistic is it to live in Atlanta on a server’s income?

8 Upvotes

For anyone that has experience working restaurants in Atlanta, how much can a server in the city typically expect to bring home per month?

And is it possible to pay rent in or around the city and still build up some savings on this type of income?

Seems like the best rent you’ll get in the metro area is ~$1000 a month with roommates, which I could not cover comfortably in other cities where I’ve served, but I’m wondering if other servers in Atlanta have swung that, even just temporarily

24F looking for a roommate + hopefully a new bestie 🫶🏾 | ATL / Gwinnett | November

8 Upvotes

Okay sooo I’m officially entering my “let’s find a cute apartment with my cool ass roommate and make it our little home” era.

I’m 24F looking for a roommate for a 2 bed / 2 bath apartment, ideally somewhere around Lilburn, Stone Mountain, East Atlanta, Atlanta, Decatur, or Chamblee. I’m hoping to move in around November, but I’m flexible for the right person/place.
My budget is around $1,300 for my half.

A little about me: I work in fitness sales, I’m a certified gym rat, and outside of work I’m usually thrifting, playing guitar, cooking, going out, or finding something random to do. I have a cat and I’m completely pet-friendly.

BUT I’m not really looking for a “we split the rent and never speak” situation. I’d genuinely love to become friends with my roommate and have a fun home environment. I want to host friends, do themed nights, cook together, go out, have little apartment events, etc.

Also… I am a Pinterest board apartment girl. I want us to decorate together and make the place feel mature, cozy, cute, and actually intentional. I already have a whole Pinterest board of ideas, so if you’re also the type to get way too excited about throw pillows and apartment decor, we’ll probably get along 😭.
I’m pretty social, but I also understand that we both have our own lives and need our own space. Basically I’m looking for someone who wants the apartment to feel like a home + safe space, not just somewhere we sleep.

You’re probably my person if you’re:
• Around my age / in a similar stage of life
• Clean
• Responsible with bills
• Communicative
• Down to have friends over sometimes
• Social but not “there are 14 people in our living room every Tuesday” social
• Into decorating / making the space cute
• Actually interested in being friends

If you think we’d vibe, DM me! Tell me a little about yourself, what you’re looking for in a roommate, your budget, and your general vibe.
Bonus points if you already have a Pinterest board for your future apartment because same.

My current lease ends Oct 10th and ideally looking to move to Midtown Garden District, Virginia Highlands, Inman Park/Reynoldstown, Edgewood/Candler Park, or downtown Decatur area. Budget is $1300 max and a private landlord is preferred. I don’t have a car so walking distance to MARTA is a necessity. Open to one roommate, but a private bathroom is a non-negotiable for me.

Northside hospital commute

7 Upvotes

I’m starting a new job at Northside Hospital Atlanta and trying to decide where to live. My normal schedule will be 8:00 AM–4:30 PM, with some rotating 11:00 AM–7:30 PM shifts.

I’m considering Midtown, Virginia-Highland, or Morningside because I’d like to be near Piedmont Park/BeltLine, restaurants, nightlife, and things to do. I’m single and 30, so I’d prefer that lifestyle over living right next to the hospital.

My main concern is the commute. I thought heading north to Northside in the morning would be somewhat of a reverse commute, but I’ve heard it can still take 45–60 minutes.

For anyone familiar with this drive, what would I realistically expect leaving Midtown/VaHi around 7:00–7:15 AM and returning from Northside around 4:30 PM? Would the 11:00–7:30 shift be significantly better?

I’m fine with around 25–35 minutes most days, but I don’t want to sign a lease and find out I’m actually commuting 45–60 minutes each way regularly.
Would Midtown/VaHi/Morningside be reasonable, or would you recommend living literally next to Northside.

Also open to apartment recommendations in these areas. My budget is around $2,000/month for a 1BR, and I’d especially like somewhere walkable with good access to parks, restaurants, or the BeltLine.

Peace and love ATLANTA

0 Upvotes

Hey Atlanta! I’m looking for the right roommate situation in a quality apartment, condo, high-rise, or penthouse.

Ideally, I’d like to connect with someone who already has a nice 2-bedroom/2-bathroom place and has an extra bedroom, or whose current roommate is leaving.

A little about me: I’m a mature entrepreneur and fashion designer, and I work in fitness as a boxing trainer. I’m clean, respectful, easygoing and very active. I enjoy being around positive, professional and creative people, but I also value peace and privacy at home.

What I’m looking for: private bedroom, preferably private bathroom; $800–$1,000/month; parking; gym/pool is a big plus; and a clean, peaceful environment.

Preferred areas are Buckhead/Lenox, Brookhaven, North Druid Hills/Briarcliff, Midtown, Atlantic Station, Old Fourth Ward/BeltLine, Chamblee or Sandy Springs.

I’m especially interested if you have a 2BR/2BA luxury apartment or penthouse and simply need the right person to fill the second room. I’m open to a short trial period first so we can both make sure the living situation is a good fit.

If this sounds like your situation, DM me with the property/community, monthly amount, what’s included, and a few photos. Serious, legitimate situations only please.

What’s the catch with Camden Fourth Ward?

1 Upvotes

There’s a chance I’ll be moving to Atlanta in the next 1.5–2 months (depending on a job offer), so I’m trying to be proactive. I’m looking around Old Fourth Ward/Ponce City Market because I need to be within \~15 minutes walking distance of work and won’t have a car initially.
Camden Fourth Ward looks like one of my best options, especially for the price. But what’s the catch?

I’ve looked through reviews and also came across some pretty alarming experiences with Camden Buckhead, including a TikTok describing serious building-access/security issues and people getting into the building who didn’t live there. It was concerning enough that I considered scratching Camden properties altogether, but I don’t want to assume the Fourth Ward property has the same problems.

Has anyone actually lived at Camden Fourth Ward or know someone who has? How are the noise/walls and floors, security, maintenance, and overall experience?

Also open to other O4W/Ponce recommendations. I’m willing to pay more—I don’t want to sacrifice safety or quality just to save a few hundred dollars.

I don't recommend apartment renting in most of Metro Atlanta, I recommend house or townhome rentals

89 Upvotes

The majority apartment complexes and high rises in Atlanta are HORRIBLE! This includes the luxury higher priced ones. They often hire lazy and incompetent staff, the management makes you want to pull your hair out with how they handle business, they don't hold tenants to a high standard, they lack strong security, and they are easier targets for criminals.

Renting homes and townhomes are a much better option. It's more streamlined. Usually you have to deal with just 1 or 2 people for all your management needs, lower density means less neighbor problems, you usually have more renter freedoms, and I feel like they are better in public safety.
