What is the best place to live and raise children in Georgia? Rosswell or Peachtree?

We are a Puerto Rican family looking to relocate to Georgia. I am a clinical psychologist and my husband recently retired from the US Air force. We have a 5 year old girl and a four year old boy and our main reason to relocate is because things in Puerto Rico are looking pretty bad. The economy is about to collapse and companies are exploring the possibility to relocate to other countries. They said that Georgia is one of the best places with best “quality of Life”. I read that Roswell and Peachtree have won several awards. We are CLULESS about were would the best place for us and for our children. I love old houses, victorian, or colonial stye and something that I said that I MUST have if we ever moved again is that I want some privacy, big backyard and a very privatte and quiet setting. The school is another issue, we are homeschoolers but we are looking forward to put our children back to the system and for us having a good elementary school with a good ratio of diferrent ethnic groups is critical. We are fully bilingual but it would be nice if our children could have friends that can speak their main native language which is spanish. Any ideas were could we start looking for good comunnites to raise our children? Both my husband and I are planning to work in Atlanta so keep that in consideration since I must struggle to work and deal with going to pick up the kids at school.

any of the north atlanta suburbs would be fine. esp the ones along ga 400. Roswell, alpharetta, dunwoody, sandy spring, east marietta etc. peachtree city is also nice but it is way south of atlanta. The north suburbs have better access to the better stuff. Yards though tend to be small here as developers do their best to cluster as many houses as they can into a sub division. Even the million dollar homes are stacked up on each other. The older houses tend to have more property. Schools in east cobb, north fulton will all be quality schools. The only real issue for you guys is traffic. It is horrible, especially from the suburbs to the city. There are some areas in Atlanta that are nice and have older homes in upscale neighborhoods which may make your drive easier.

Both of the cities are nice. Unfortunately, both of the highways from Atlanta to get home or go to work will have alot of traffic. You may want to live someone that has a boys and girls club for your children, so that you will not have to pick them up until 7:00 doing school terms. Good luck!
