East Atlanta
Your Intown Atlanta Neighborhood Guide: East Atlanta
The heart and soul of this neighborhood is the East Atlanta Village (EAV); it’s the business district that is located at the intersection of Flat Shoals and Glenwood Avenue. Dubbed the “Best Kept Secret in Atlanta” by the Washington Post, the EAV (with each letter spoken…not to be confused with saying “eve”) is beloved by those who live in the neighborhood but almost unheard of by those who live outside of the neighborhood.
The EAV has a similar energy as Little Five Points. The people are laid-back, tattooed, skinny-jean wearing folk who care deeply about their neighborhood. The Village is home to eclectic shops and restaurants, including a used bookstore, I.V. drips of caffeine (a.k.a a coffee shop), a couple of nightclubs, a music store, and several music venues where you can listen to live music nearly every night of the week over some yummy grub (e.g., see The Earl).
East Atlanta is especially attractive to young adults and investors for its affordability. Typical homes include Bungalows, post-war ranch style homes, and new(er) Craftsman homes. Commuters, too are especially fond of this area, as it provides quick and easy access to the major highways, such as I-20 and the I-75/85 Connector.
