Grant Park is awesome too! And East Atlanta Village. A bit west of Decatur (closer to the actual Atlanta downtown), right by the biggest green space in the city, some townhomes and lots of SFH in a walkable area. And a really awesome parent's network. Schools are ok; there's a charter school that's awesome.
We live in Avondale Estates, and I'd highly recommend Decatur and the surrounding area - depending what you want to do for schools.
We lived in Avondale when the kids were tiny. I love the community there. But the local school is terrible. Everyone drives their kids "away" to school each day.
Hi, there. We just moved to Decatur (medlock park) and are looking for other like-minded families in the area. Just thought I'd say 'hello' and wish you well in the transition.
