My fiancée is not here yet, but when she is there will be!

All of my family lives in Cumming and Dawsonville. I live an hour south in Atlanta. I'll eventually move to Cumming when we have children, because the schools are better there and it would be nice to have the family near by to help. But, for the foreseeable future we will be staying close to Atlanta (more to do and where I work).

I know there are a lot of Asian Americans near Cumming in the Johns Creek/Duluth/Norcross area, but I'm not sure how many are Filipinos (I've only met Koreans in the area). Near Atlanta there is a road called Buford Hwy that has a large number of immigrants and lots of immigrant run restaurants, including a Filipino cafe and a grocery store. Atlanta has a growing Asian population, but honestly I'm not sure how Filipinos factor into that. It's a great place to live, but the traffic sucks (not as bad as Manila though).

Here are web sites I've found during my research in preparing for my fiancée.

Asian grocery store in metro Atlanta:

Also, the Buford Highway Farmers Market is considered a international store, but I haven't been.

Atlanta is a true melting pot, so you will find a little of everything. The metro area(including Cumming) is large with a population of 4 million.

Pinoy are everywhere. We go to Atl for functions from time to time. Large group here in Middle Ga. We get together often. The big annual gathering is in Feb. expect over 100 Fil-Am couples in Mid Ga.
