Avondale Estates is a small community in Atlanta’s eastern suburbs, right between Decatur and I-285. Primarily a residential area, Avondale Estates is a hidden gem for folks seeking a quiet home environment inside the 285 perimeter: Commuters can take advantage of the easy access to Atlanta’s Downtown, Midtown, and Buckhead; the rental market includes numerous apartments, houses, and condos perfect for young professionals and students at nearby Emory University or Agnes Scott College; and the combination of terrific local schools and an exceptionally low crime rate make the area a great choice for families.

A modest Downtown district on the north side offers a collective of locally-owned hangouts, including specialty shops like Pine Street Market, unique eateries like Palookaville Fine Foods, and the popular venue Avondale Towne Cinema.
