Situated roughly 10 miles northwest of Atlanta proper, Cumberland, Atlanta's fifth largest business district, teems with an elegant mixture of small town charm and big city sophistication. Residents love Cumberland's proximity to downtown Atlanta, as well as its local art scene, which encompasses the Atlanta Ballet, the Rialto Center for the Arts and the Village Theatre, an improv comedy venue. Lofts and homes for rent are within driving or walking distance of most shopping, dining, day trips and nightlife.
Cumberland Mall, centrally located, is a popular hub that makes it easy for locals to get in some retail therapy. Many eateries call the mall home, and locals rave about Stoney River Steakhouse and Grill as well as Maggiano's Little Italy. When Cumberland residents want quick, healthy fare, they hit up Fresh to Order, where the menu bursts with farm-to-table ingredients specially cooked to order. The club sandwich is a must-try.
