Meeting New People in Alpharetta GA (21M)

Hey I hope you guys are doing well and I'm moving to Alpharetta, GA soon! (This happens to be my first time using reddit which is kinda funny.) I was wondering if anyone has any advice or insights to meet people and make friends. I'm a very social person and I have a bunch of fitness-related hobbies like soccer, beach vb, basketball, ice skating, hiking etc. I've kinda been moving around alot my entire life so I'm used to meeting and making new friends. Currently, I'd be relocating from Ontario but I lived in Texas before that. I'm optimistic about this move and if anyone has any advice to meet likeminded progressive individuals who can also have fun, I'd love to hear it. I'd also love to hear about Alpharetta culture if anyone has suggestions for that.

House of Entrepreneurs Incubator Sandy Springs

Hello everyone, I have a 7000 square-foot house in Sandy Springs and I'm an entrepreneur business owner. I'm looking to share my house with other like-minded working professional millennials that are interested in fitness, artificial intelligence, technology, real estate, law, and marketing. Have a couple rooms that are for rent and wouldn't mind showing them to someone who is interested. The goal is to have a house as a start up incubator.

Traffic light at Maxwell and HWY 9

Does anyone know the status of the traffic light at Maxwell Rd and Hwy 9. It would be lovely if they could make that operational. I know its GDOT and not Alpharetta's problem, but with the new traffic pattern, I find the intersection unsafe without that light being functional yet.

Fulton Science Academy

Hi everyone, my spouse has been offered a promotion that would relocate us to Alpharetta in about a year. We’ve been looking at schools, and Fulton Science Academy seems to be well regarded. I would love to ask for local feedback on the reputation of the school, and would also appreciate any feedback from personal experiences at the school. Thank you!

Relocating to Alpharetta

Hey everyone!

I’m looking for a 1-bedroom, 1-bath rental in the Alpharetta area and hoping to move in by December 30th. My budget is between $1,100 and $1,400, and I’d love to be around the Windward Parkway area or anywhere nearby with easy access to a bus stop (since I’ll be without a car). Ideally, the place would have an in-unit washer and dryer, as well as air conditioning. I’m open to different types of units—whether it’s an apartment or part of a house, as long as it has a separate entrance.

If anyone has any advice about housing options or transportation in the area, I’d really appreciate it! Thanks so much for any help or suggestions! 😊

Advice

Hi everyone!

I’m moving to Alpharetta soon for a new job and am seeking some guidance. I’ve never been to Georgia before, so I’m not sure where to stay. Ideally, I’d like to find a place close to Windward/Alderman Drive. I’m looking for apartment complexes with good access to public transportation.

I’d also appreciate suggestions for shopping centers, gyms, and the closest Catholic church. Any recommendations for restaurants and things to do in the area would be greatly appreciated!

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best place for a haircut? (Women)

Looking for a pretty easy haircut, no color! I want a long, 90s style bouncy cut with easy layers. Shouldn’t be a hard cut at all, but I don’t know the best salon to go to around here! Willing to drive a little it doesn’t need to strictly be in Alpharetta. TIA!

Hey everyone!

We’re new to Alpharetta and starting to look for an in-home babysitter for our two little ones—a 6-month-old and a 3-year-old. Curious to know what the going rate is around here for babysitters who come to your home.

Any insights on hourly rates, especially for someone with infant care experience, would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!
