I tend to disagree, I've thought all along that their decision would hinge upon making a political impact and that they'd want a lifestyle city with notable recreational opportunities as well as natural beauty. I've been thinking Virginia Beach, which is very low in this ranking.

FedEx chose Memphis for a very good reason. Good Hub. No 3 day storms.

If there are political considerations, they may look to a borderline conservative area and seek to “flip” it.
But socialist businessmen are businessmen first and socialists second. They will pick the place that offers the best deal and makes them the most money.

Atlanta? Worst possible choice. Traffic, crime, lousy standard of living. Blah. Good airport though...if you can get there.

One would think that transportation would figure greatly into the selection and Atlanta traffic is a nightmare.

I guess they want their employees to have a long commute time.
I have family in Atlanta, and I’ve never been in Atlanta when there wasn’t gridlock on the highways.

Bezos is looking for a city that will give 5 billion in tax breaks, will pony up for infrastructure costs (i.e. your tax dollars), is a major metropolitan area with a large airport, and is packed with flaming hipster liberals.
That ought to narrow it down some.

Nonsense.
It will be west of the Rocky Mountains.
Take that to the bank.
Likely within 2hrs air shuttle from Seattle. And they will have their own shuttle, as do all the very large tech companies.
It will also be outside any high-risk earthquake zone as Seattle is high risk. And very near a transcontinental fiber hub. And very near a transcontinental power grid hub.
Knowing these guys, it will also be in a “cool” college town.
Save this post. I’ll be proven correct.
