Atlanta isn't the easiest place in the world to live. It's more expensive than ever, with rents rising faster than incomes. Living in the city is a problem for an increasing number of Atlanta residents. According to census data the AJC published last year, you'd need to spend between $1,400 and $4,000 per month to afford rent in the luxury apartment complex Inman Quarter in the Old Fourth Ward. That's high, it actually isn't the priciest area in the metro.
