More than 2,100 votes have been cast. Two rounds are in the books. All north metro Atlanta suburbs have been booted from the tourney—and several dark horses are surging.
So goes the (Sub)urban Smackdown 2025 tournament!
Sixteen great ITP and OTP places remain standing, ranging from proud little communities to Atlanta’s oldest historic neighborhoods and a built-from-scratch village growing larger by the day.
Without further ado, here’s a look at the remaining field of potential champions:
A quick reminder on how this works:
- Earlier this month, we listed in alphabetical order 32 of the most populous and internet-searched places in suburban Atlanta. Ditto for 32 of Atlanta’s most historic, popular, and interesting neighborhoods.
- Please cast a vote for whichever city, neighborhood, or master-planned development you think is the best right now, whatever that means to you.
- The top vote-getter in each pairing will move on to the next round. In the event of a tie, the competitor that comes first in alphabetical order will advance.
- Voting in this Sweet 16 round of the Metro Atlanta Big Dance will close Friday at 1 p.m. sharp!
Please, take a second and cast a vote below.
Now, let the eliminations resume!
