I'll defer to those that live in Fulton County, but I believe both the places you mentioned have significantly higher property taxes than Cobb, plus a 1% additional MARTA (transit system) sales tax - Atlanta is in Fulton County as well - and the traffic is pretty darn bad over there.
I'd suggest that your friend and his family spend a few days in the Atlanta area to see which part of town is a good fit, especially during the week to check out the traffic patterns. I've driven in Los Angeles, and Atlanta isn't much different during rush hour.
Having lived in the ATL area for nearly 30 years, if my job was in Smyrna my choice would be in or near Vinings. But different strokes for different folks, right?
