12 Metro Atlanta Atlanta is considered by many economists and real estate investors to be the most dynamic major metropolitan area in the United States. Home to over 5.1 million people, the Atlanta metropolitan area is the ninth largest Metropolitan Statistical Area in the country. It has a solid, diverse economy and pro-business atmosphere, with strong political, demographic and geographic qualities. Atlanta consistently ranks at or near the top of many expert opinion polls and survey rankings. Atlanta is recognized for its superior business environment in Expansion Management Magazine (Jan 2006) where it is listed as the third hottest city for business relocation and expansion. Atlanta also ranked third in Site Selection Magazine s Top Ten Metros, complimented by the state of Georgia claiming the number two spot for Top State Business Climate (November 2007). In addition to these recognitions, Chief Executive Magazine ranked Georgia as the fifth Best States for Business (Jan 2006) and EWEEK Magazine acknowledged Atlanta as number two in Beyond the Valley: 10 Blooming U.S. Cities for Tech (June 2006). As a major international gateway, Atlanta has been labeled the Capital of the Southern region of the United States. Consistently termed The New South, it continues to be one of the fastest growing regions in the nation. Businesses enjoy the benefits of low operating costs, a high quality of life, low cost of living and a well-educated workforce. As the top job-producing economy in the United States, Metropolitan Atlanta is projected to continue leading the nation in job creation well into the 21st century. Atlanta s influence is not limited to the Southeastern region of the country. The Atlanta Chamber of Commerce characterizes Atlanta s national and international business strength in the following statement: Every time you sip a Coca-Cola, send a package via UPS, bunk down overnight at a Holiday Inn, board a Delta Airlines plane or watch the news as it happens on Cable News Network (CNN), you re doing business with Atlanta. Atlanta has consistently been ranked at or near the top of the National Real Estate Investor as the most favored metropolitan area for real estate investment. But real estate is not the only indicator of Atlanta s economic success and future opportunities. Successful businesses, growing organizations, positive economic indicators and a continuing population influx affirm Atlanta s standing as one of the most preeminent economic powerhouse cities in the United States. A diversified economy with consistent growth continues to be the hallmark of the Atlanta economy. Since 2000, the metropolitan Atlanta region has added, on average, over 140,000 new residents each year. The continuous population growth, coupled with the steady robust growth in employment, creates an economic strength not shared by many cities in the United States. Every time you sip a Coca-Cola, send a package via UPS, bunk down overnight at a Holiday Inn, board a Delta Airlines plane or watch the news as it happens on Cable News Network (CNN), you re doing business with Atlanta. - Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce

14 metro atlanta Transportation Transportation is central to metro Atlanta s growth and success. Through innovative planning and bold leadership, Atlanta boasts one of the most extensive transportation systems in the country, including an outstanding international airport, the ninth largest transit system in the United States, rail access and a superior mass transit system, MARTA (Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority). Hatfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport The World s Busiest Passenger Airport Serving more than 84 million passengers a year, Hartsfield-Jackson is best characterized by its accessibility and 24-hour convenience. An estimated 80% of the US market (approximately 200 million consumers) is within a 2-hour flight of Atlanta. Improvements to the airport continue with its latest runway addition, increasing its flight capacity with a total of five runways and serving to claim the distinction of being one of the few airports to handle triple simultaneous landings. With over 2,700 flights per day connecting metropolitan Atlanta s business community with every major market and business community in the world, Hartsfield-Jackson deserves its title - Gateway to the World. Marta The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) operates bus and rapid rail services in Fulton County and neighboring DeKalb County. Through both its bus and rail services, MARTA has the capacity to transport nearly one million passengers per day. MARTA s rapid transit rail covers more than 48 miles, with 38 train stations across four lines. Rail Service Atlanta, which was built around a stake in the ground that marked the terminating point for the Western and Atlantic Railroad, is still a major railroad center. CSX and Norfolk Southern railroads operate piggyback facilities in Atlanta with overnight service available from the ports of Savannah, Brunswick, Jacksonville, and Charleston. Both railroads also operate stack trains to and from the West Coast. AMTRAK provides passenger rail service to and from Atlanta. We ve got the world s busiest airport, the third-highest concentration of Fortune 500 companies in the nation, cutting-edge research universities that attract the young professionals from all over the globe, the lowest cost of doing business in the nation and plenty of sunshine. Combine all that with the fact that Atlanta is the business capital of the Southeast, and it s easy to see why people are coming here in droves. --- Sam A. Williams, President of Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce

Atlanta is one of the few cities with three major interstate highways converging near the Central Business District, making it a hub for regional commerce and distribution.

I-285 is the perimeter highway which encircles Atlanta, serving as a bypass and providing additional connections for all three major interstates.
