The neighborhood is great and my apartment unit is within walking distance of several coffee shops/sandwich places/bookstores/etc. The intersection of Virginia and N. Highland has dozens of places to eat and several sports bars for nightlife.

Pros:

Quiet, attractive homes and neighborhood, great proximity to Emory and all other in-town neighborhoods, can spend the entire weekend without using your car if you wanted, tons of bars and restaurants around.

Cons:

Vibe of bars / restaurants is more casual / low key / divey so if you are looking for something more high end and urban in terms of high rises and newer build, I would look at Midtown or Buckhead.

I think this is an ideal neighborhood. Inman Park might be the only other area I would consider above the Highlands.

The neighborhood is wonderful! There are plenty of things to walk to, and it seems very close to all of the other neighborhoods in Atlanta. The beltline is basically in my backyard, so that is a huge plus as well.

My neighborhood is very walkable and has a bunch of restaurants/ bars near by. It also has very easy access to the Beltline which you can take to Krog St. Market, Piedmont Park, or Ponce City Market.

VaHi is a perfect launching point to get to campus quickly (5-10mins) as well as walk to attractions like Ponce City Market, the Beltline, and all the bars students are likely to go to. I've got beautiful houses, an abundance of uber drivers, and a lot of history in the neighborhood. It's perfectly located to quickly get anywhere in town. The only downside is that crime as gotten worse in the neighborhood since I've lived there with more car break-ins and late night muggings, but I think that's true across Atlanta.

Virginia Highlands is the perfect location if you are looking for a quiet neighborhood close to everything Atlanta has to offer. Great restaurants, nightlife and close the Beltline for all your workout needs.
