About Decatur

Decatur is an independent city inside Metro Atlanta with its own identity, its own school system, and an outsized reputation for food. Named one of the South's best foodie destinations by multiple publications, Decatur Square is the hub — farm-to-table restaurants, locally owned bookshops, craft breweries, and a Saturday farmers market that's practically a religious experience.

City Schools of Decatur consistently rank among the top in the state, which drives serious demand for the Craftsman bungalows and Tudor homes that line the tree-canopied streets. MARTA's Decatur station provides rail access to downtown Atlanta in 15 minutes. Homes range from $400K renovated bungalows to $1.2M+ new construction in Oakhurst and Winnona Park.
