Atlanta

Atlanta's oldest suburb sits two miles east of downtown, where Joel Hurt laid out a garden suburb in 1889 around Springvale Park. The first report is Inman Park, the neighborhood that plan built.

Metro Snapshot

Inman Park sets the first comparison points. Its Homes.com median sale price of $784,500 (last 12 months, October 2026) buys a Walk Score of 87, a one bedroom rental market averaging $2,033 a month, and a MARTA train that reaches Five Points in downtown in six minutes. Around it, the east side brackets the range: Candler Park trades quieter across Moreland Avenue, Druid Hills trades grander to the northeast, and the BeltLine runs south through Reynoldstown and north toward Midtown.

Atlanta's first garden suburb, still living on its 1889 plan: curving streets and Queen Anne porches around Springvale Park, the BeltLine trail and Krog Street Market on the west edge, and a MARTA train that reaches downtown in six minutes, two miles away.
