🇺🇸 Where to live in Atlanta

Atlanta's residential areas range from tower-dense cores near rail stations to low-rise streets of bungalows and Victorians. Some places are built around a park, a market or a shopping strip within walking distance; others are quieter or more industrial in feel. A few, like Decatur, function as their own small city rather than an extension of the center.
