"Aesthetically beautiful, family friendly, and very green."

Ansley Park is comprised of peaceful, charming streets where almost everyone takes great care of their yards and homes. The architecture is honestly the best I've seen in any Atlanta neighborhood (and I know a thing or two about architecture!). The parks are quiet and clean, unlike some neighborhood parks that are located next to super busy roads. When you are in Ansley Park you wouldn't know that you were in the middle of a busy city because it's so green and quiet and well-kept. But once you step out of the neighborhood, you are surrounding by the beautiful heart of Atlanta. Ansley Park is not only aesthetically beautiful, but is also filled with history, culture, and interesting homes and stories. The neighborhood is home to a community of kids, teens, and parents. Everyone at least knows someone their age in the neighborhood. There are social oppurtunities for adults, like Neigborhood Diners. You know what? I could go on for hours writing about how amazing Ansley Park is, so I'll just say one more thing: when I'm walking through this neighborhood, time stops. I can't describe how amazing Ansley Park is. I just can't do it justice.
Oh, one more thing! You can easily walk to Ansley Mall, The High Museum, The Botanical Gardens, Piedmont Park, and surrounding areas from the neighborhood. I actually do have one bad thing to say about Ansley park: it is confusing. A lot of people who go there for the first time get lost because the blocks aren't in normal squares. But personally, that makes it even more beautiful! :)
Pros
  • Strong communities
  • Aesthetically beautiful
  • arts, culture, and much more
  • beautiful stately homes
  • great green spaces
  • nice & quiet
Cons
  • Since the neighborhood is so full of trees, a few fall when it storms really hard. But no one has ever been injured by that!
