Even though Atlanta represents only a tiny fraction of its MSA population, I guess this impressive growth the city presented in this decade will be a game changer: I bet Atlanta UA will be slightly denser in 2020 compared to 2010.

Probably. The city of Atlanta's growth trajectory actually looks more like a northern industrial city than one in the Sun Belt. Between 1960 and 2010, NYC had a higher average rate of population growth than Atlanta. But this past decade, the city of Atlanta's growth looks much more Sun Belt like.
