About it being dirty, note that I mentioned I know they've cleaned it up a lot. I havent been there since 2003. Any city of size is gonna be dirty (atlanta is) and I don't really like that.

NYC is actually pretty clean for a big city. I've always been impressed every time I visit with how the sidewalks are rarely littered, there's not too much smog, etc.

Atlanta on the other hand. Bleh. The smog problem is unbelievable. During the winter, I can see Stone Mountain clearly from my office but during the summer...forget it. The visibility is poor and I'm over 30 floors up. Also, if you go to Stone Mountain and you look out at downtown Atlanta, the city is looks like it's enclosed in a yellow/gray cloud.
