"Some of the best bungalows in town"

Westview is an up-and-coming neighborhood that is located in southwest Atlanta. It is only minutes away from Midtown and Downtown. During the past years, recent renovations to this area have attracted a swarm of new residents who call this place home. There are several benefits of living in this area.

Westview has some of Atlanta’s most beautiful historic bungalows. Cost of living is still somewhat affordable. So, if you are considering this area, you better move quick. I’m sure in the next few years, the value of these homes will increase - assuming that this neighborhood keeps the improvements coming.

Another great perk about his neighborhood is that is has a fairly ideal location. It is not too far away from Interstate 20, which means easy access to local city attractions. The Georgia Dome and Turner Field are both roughly only 11 minutes away. This is the perfect combination if you are a sports lover, because you’ve got the Braves and the Falcon’s both at your fingertips.

This area also has quick access to the schools of the Atlanta University Center (AUC), which includes Spelman College, Morehouse College, Clark Atlanta University and Morehouse School of Medicine. Georgia State University and Georgia Tech are also roughly 3 miles away. I would recommend this neighborhood for anyone looking to get a good deal on a quality home. The only downfall is that this area does have a little crime.
Pros
  • nice affordable homes
  • close to several attractions
  • close to several popular colleges
Cons
  • some areas are a little sketchy
  • needs more shopping options
