is hardly ever in Atlanta anyway given her job as ESPN sportscaster and her current “Dancing With the Stars” gig. But this might give her even less reason to be around:

Michael Barrett

, the stalker who videotaped her through a peephole at three hotels, is going to serve his 30-month sentence in a federal prison in Atlanta.

Andrews lives in Dunwoody, according to this Daily News story.

This location wasn’t Barrett’s choice.

Barrett, a divorced insurance executive, was hoping for placement in Oregon or Wisconsin, within driving distance of relatives who might visit, the source said.
