What Renters Like and Dislike About Downtown Atlanta

I really, really like the shops where I live, where I can go shopping with my family, and the parks where I live, where I can go walking with my family

There's a nice grocery store in our neighborhood. Most of the things I want are available, and I love them

My_neighbourhood is filled with_enough places to go with family, business such as McDonald's, and_others_thrive_here

Living in Atlanta, GA

Getting to Know Downtown, Atlanta, GA

Downtown is Atlanta's central business district, featuring some of the city's tallest buildings and most notable landmarks. Residents of this dense, pedestrian-friendly neighborhood usually work in the area or go to Georgia State University's downtown campus. They can hop on MARTA or the streetcar to access a variety of corporate headquarters and popular attractions (yes, some are touristy) like the World of Coca-Cola, the Georgia Aquarium, the CNN Center and Centennial Olympic Park. Locals also flock to downtown to catch a Hawks or Falcons game. The area has seen an increase in newly-renovated condos and apartments. Plus, there is Woodruff Park and a diverse selection of restaurants, including the Sun Dial that provides 360-degree views of Atlanta's skyline.

Your downtown apartment for rent is situated amid the fervent hustle and bustle of the up-and-coming metropolis, Atlanta, Georgia. Your new home affords you ample access to a slew of recreational opportunities that range from sports arenas and night clubs to fitness centers and parks. Right down the street from your new abode is Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where you'll be able to see the Atlanta Falcons play on Sundays or listen to the crowds roar as you sip a libation at a local watering hole with your new neighbors. Just a stone's throw away from your Downtown apartment are a diverse array of great local eateries. On early mornings before work, you can kickstart your day with a cup of joe from Saxyby's Coffee, and you can spend lazy Sunday mornings eating brunch with your family at the nearby Waffle House on Lower Alabama Street. For dinner you can head to Sidebar or grab something from Lucky Takeout. If you want to spend some quality time with the little ones, take a jaunt down to the University Center Park, where you can throw around the football or simply lounge in the grass. If you want to have a day full of fun and learning, then visit the close-by Natural Sciences Center and then grab a bite to eat at the Heavenly Cafe next door. To take a trip to the other side of the city, simply hop on one of the myriad buses that drives by your abode or utilize the metro system - the closest station is just a couple blocks from your home. If you have friends or family that want to come visit you after you've finished settling in, then you can easily find accommodations for them at the local Holiday Inn Express.
