Should I move away? Would you? -

*I am about to graduate high school in January 2010.- currently 19yrs old.- currently employed.*from SavannahBut I am confused. I have lived in my home city all my life. I know where everything is like the gym, colleges to attend, malls....everything really. I am deciding whether or not to move to Atlanta, GA. My cousin lives there. But I would unconfortable because I would be moving away from everything i know. On the other hand, moving out would help me become more independant, learn how to provide for myself, etc.I need as many opinions as possible.Thanks! 3

I tink after asking the exact same question in here 12 time you should have enough outside opinions for be able to formulate your own.If you don t have the confidence it takes to make a decision on your own maybe moving out isnt a good idea for you at this time in your life.

Sallie, are you looking to attend college? If so, check out the various universities throughout Georgia, and apply to one that suits your needs. If you re not going to school and just want to move to Atlanta, know that you ll have a difficult finding employment.If things are working for you in Savannah, stay. It s certainly a beautiful city. But again, I think you should be concentrating on what school to attend once you finish high school. Georgia Southern in Statesboro isn t too far from Savannah, and it s got a lot going for it.

If you have a good relationship with your parents, talk to them about whether you could move back if things don t work out. But DO move! Save up some money first, though. Work extra hard for a few months. Save tons of money...study the place you plan to move. Set a date. Visit the city for a few days...stay in a hotel, take a friend. Explore. Find a job. Pack. Move. Grow. Enjoy...do it again in a few years...You ll be glad you did!

Well you are employed you know your home town because you lived there all your life. I think you should stay there but you need to move several miles away from where you are to be independent get your own apartment,and provide for yourself.I wish you loads of luck.

There are plenty of colleges in Atlanta. I don t need to tell you that. You know what they are. I would move. You re young. Experience something new. If you don t like it and you miss your friends and family too much you can always go back home.

Yeah I would move. Yes you should move, then you can learn how to do things on you re own. You should go where you re cousin is.

How safe is it to live in the United States? -

Depends on where you want to live in the US. This is a very big country, but generally it is quite safe to live in the US compared to say Afghanistan, Pakistan or Iraq.

Anywhere between bring your mase in your purse everywhere, everyday. to no one in this town ever locks their doors. Even in my home state of Wisconsin, there are extremes. In Milwaukee, it is vital to walk with someone else or at least have a way to defend yourself in the bad neighborhoods. In some small towns, the worst thing that ever happens is a tractor creates a traffic jam on the main road. In general, smaller to medium sized towns are always going to be safer than big towns.

Depends where you live but the worst place in the US is like the best place in Iraq,Lol its the safest country.Just dont move into like a gang related area and mostly youll be fine.

in comparison to where? I think it also depends on what part of the US you are referring to.... there are safe places and there are some not so safe places... I love America and am proud to live here!

It depends on where you live. In general it is really safe.

That is an extremely subjective question? Where in the US?
