Decatur, Georgia Real Estate
"A city of homes, churches and schools."
The city of Decatur, located in Dekalb County, is a suburb of Atlanta. With a growing population of around 20,000, the city and its economy are steadily growing with new downtown developments. This city has become one of the trendy hot spots in the Atlanta Metropolitan area, all the while maintaining its historic, and hometown ties.
Decatur is widely known for its independent school system, which has one of the lowest student to teacher ratios in the entire state of Georgia. There are four elementary schools, one middle school and one high school, all of which show consistently elevated test scores. There are also four areas of higher education within the city, two being Agnes Scott College, which was rated one of the 50 best liberal arts colleges in the nation, and Emory University, which is ranked 17th in the nations top universities, all according to U.S. News and World Report.
While Decatur education is winning awards, so are the city's events. The Great Decatur Beer and Wine Tasting Festivals, the Decatur Book Festival and the Decatur Art Festival have all received Kaleidoscope Awards from the Southeast Festivals and Events Association. Great times, great fun and great people await the residents at each and every Decatur event, and great food welcomes the residents every day at one of the largest farmers markets in the Metro Atlanta Market. The Dekalb Farmers Market contains over 140,000 square feet of international fare, and brings visitors from all over the world.
The historic city of Decatur maintains its motto, being a "city of homes, churches and schools," while at the same time allowing for the growth that is surely to continue.
