Georgia Town Ranked One of America’s ‘Coolest’ Cities
If you live in a cool city, then you have bragging rights. As it turns out, one Georgia city has been named one of the coolest in America. So, what makes a city cool? In my opinion, when I think of a cool city, I think of a place with awesome things to do, such as a great music and entertainment scene. A cool city also has unique places to visit and spots you won’t find anywhere else. A cool city is different and stands out from the rest, in a good way. Of course, great food is a big part of being a hip city. Chain restaurants are fine, but the coolest cities have local dining options that are all their own. So, let’s get into this very cool Georgia spot.
Georgia Town is One of the ‘Coolest’
Forbes has a new feature out about the coolest cities in America, noting these places have great “culture, food, nightlife and environmental sustainability.” They sourced Canada Sports Betting, noting, that “the site analyzed 50 of the largest cities in the U.S. and Canada using eight overarching categories, from lifestyle and recreation to media coverage,” adding that the editors and experts in the report “then drilled into 19 metrics, which were weighted and rated based on a 100-point scale” on “cool” factors, such as “the number of breweries in the city, the number of Instagram posts with the hashtag of the city mentioned.”
So, what’s the No. 1 coolest city in the country? According to their experts, it’s New York City. “New York City gained its place at the top of the rankings due to its global influence, being the number one most Instagrammed city on the list, due to its iconic skyline and impressive number of historical landmarks (803),” the authors of the report wrote, per Forbes. They also said the Big Apple was the most “innovate” spot and a great area for “music and arts.” That’s not to mention sports. The No. 2 city on the tally was Washington, D.C., followed by Los Angeles. For Washington, D.C., the writes note it stands out because of its history and historic monuments, which totally makes sense.
As for Georgia, Atlanta makes the cut at No. 20 on the tally, and it really impressed the editors. The Visit Atlanta site boasts this city’s coolness factor, stating, “We didn’t create freedom, soda, grits or hospitality—we elevated them into something sacred. We didn’t invent hip-hop—we just took it to a whole different level.”
