For my essay I have to pick a county in Georgia and collect information about it's demographics and stuff. Then I have to do the same about my university (georgia state university). and then analyze and compare the data for the two.

This is what I have so far for Doraville:
Doraville:
Total Population: 17928
Male: 53.29%
Female: 46.72%
18 years and over: 76.4%
Married persons: 33.2%
Never married: 28%

Ethnicity:
White: 49.4%
Hispanic or Latino: 43.4%
Black or African American: 15.4%

Crime Risk: 74 out of 100

I'm trying to find out some political issues that are of primary concern in Doraville, but I can't find it on the internet. Can I please get some help with this?
Thanks

I would imagine that the economy would be a concern there as it is everywhere.
The up-coming elections might be of concern. Look in your town newspaper for , especially the editorial section, to see what the local people are concerned about particularly.
You have to choose a county and yet you chose Doraville? Isn't the county called DeKalb? Won't that affect whatever facts you come up with?

Yes, the county's dekalb. But on my instructions it says choose a county ex.Decatur, Buckhead, Alpharetta, Peachtree City.

(these, are all cities, not counties)

So, I didn't if I should go ahead and pick a county anyways or chose a city, like the example shows.
