Not sure where exactly Emory is. Do you want to be in walking distance to there also? I love Atlantic Station in midtown ATL. It’s the whole concept of live, work, eat, play. My friends live in Smyrna and it is very quaint but that’s kinda North and pricey. Other than that, not too familiar with ATL (I live in Athens). I spent some time in Buckhead many years ago and am not sure what it’s like anymore. Oh, I forgot, Virginia Highlands is AWESOME…artsy, shops, restaurants etc. Not sure where that is located but not too far from Buckhead I believe). Have you been to ATL? Traffic is a bear. Live as close as you can to where you need to go. Hope this helps :-)
