The new suburbs are now 20-30 miles outside of city limits and a lot of those markets are skyrocketing too. Anything closer and you’re either overpaying for a inferior property or moneys no object and you can afford whatever you want. Around here places like Forest Park and Decatur are overpriced because it’s close but the houses are pretty trash. You gotta go far out south Clayton county or Dekalb to get the good 5,000sqft homes but deal with a 45min commute. Same with Cobb, Gwinnett and Douglas. Personally, for the size of the home and peace of mind I’ll deal with the commute. My home is up $150k since I bought in pandemic 2020.
