"Feels Like Home"
Harland Terrace is a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia, located to the west of the city off of Interstate 20. It is rather close to the downtown area, and only takes a few minutes drive to arrive in the city, so a daily commute shouldn't take very long. The neighborhood is on the smaller size, with a total population of under 2,000 and a total square miles radius of just over half a mile.
A majority of the individuals living in the neighborhood are on the younger side, as ages 20 to 30 are the average, making it perfect for your professionals and individuals who have just graduated college. Due to the small size of the neighborhood there is not much in terms of night life, as a majority of it takes place in the city. The further west you move outwards of the city, the more land you have and the better opportunities towards recreation.
The shopping scene is limited, but with its close proximity to the downtown area, it is just a short drive towards all the shopping of the city of Atlanta.
This holds true with the attractions, as the vast majority of activities and attractions are found within Atlanta itself.

"Some nice parts... some not so nice parts"
Located on the southwest side of Atlanta is a tiny suburb called Harland Terrace. Martin Luther King Jr. Dr SW and Peyton Rd SW are two popular streets that run through this neighborhood. The area is only about 6 miles away from Downtown, Atlanta and it is somewhat MARTA accessible. It is mostly comprised of midsized homes that are surrounded by beautiful large evergreen trees. This neighborhood is pretty close to Interstate 20. So, you are basically minutes away from city attractions like shopping and dining.
Isabel Gates Webster Park and Columbia Gates Park are two local parks that are situated close-by. There are several schools that are in the vicinity. They include Peyton Forest Elementary, Douglass High, West Manor School, Worthy’s Christian Academy and a host of others. Hightower Station Shopping Center and Westridge Shopping Center are both within a 1 mile radius to this neighborhood. But, don’t set your hopes too high. Both centers are a bit below mall grade quality and mostly consists of random apparel shops, beauty supply marts and the occasional cell phone store.
Over all, I would say that the houses are pretty nice in this neighborhood, but as soon as you venture out of your driveway and lurk down the street, the area gets a little sketchy.
