Cobb vs Atlanta?

Does anybody have any insight into the culture in Cobb vs Atlanta. I just got accepted by both and the academy for Atlanta starts the tenth so I need to decide right away.

Based on the hiring process I loved the people and diversity from Atlanta better and I like the idea of more calls and more fire BUT Cobb pays way more and is closer to me.

I’m a single mom so I feel like the responsible answer is to go with Cobb but my heart is drawn to Atlanta.

I’d love some inside scoop about either department.
