Why Live in Dixie Hills
Dixie Hills, a historic neighborhood in Atlanta, is experiencing a revitalization less than 5 miles west of Downtown. Established in 1938 for the African American middle class, the area saw significant investment following the 1967 race riots, leading to the creation of Anderson Park. Today, the neighborhood features renovated brick ranch homes and bungalows with small driveways, avoiding street parking. Anderson Park, a 52-acre green space, offers a recreation center, playground, tennis court, basketball hoops, and a community pool. The neighborhood is close to the West Lake MARTA Station, providing light rail and bus services, and is near Interstate 20 and Martin Luther King Dr. Northwest, facilitating access to downtown. Dixie Hills is part of Atlanta Public Schools, with options like Woodson Park Academy and Fredrick Douglass High School, which offers a STEAM Program. The area also hosts KIPP Atlanta Collegiate, a charter high school. Local amenities include the Plaza at Dixie Hills Shopping Center, featuring Off the Hook seafood restaurant, convenience stores, and other services. Residents are minutes away from attractions like the Atlanta BeltLine, Mercedes Benz Stadium, State Farm Arena, Georgia Aquarium, and the Coca-Cola factory.
