Hammond Park
Midcentury and New Traditional-style homes in leafy subdivisions
Most homes in Hammond Park are located in leafy residential subdivisions, east of Interstate 85. Nearly all of the houses were built between the 1940s and ’50s and feature ranch-style architecture. But some New Traditionals were added in the early 2000s. Home prices here typically range from $125,000 to $300,000, and multi-acre empty lots list between $1.45 million and $3.35 million.

City parks, an art and culture center and a golf course nearby
Despite its name, Hammond Park doesn’t have any neighborhood parks or greenspaces. But plenty of outdoor recreation is right down the road. Tree-covered walking trails and a large jungle gym are less than a mile away at Cofield Park. South Bend Park stretches across 75 acres of land, just north of the neighborhood. It features a fenced-in shaded dog park, tennis and basketball courts and the South Bend Art and Culture Center, where kids can sign up for community sports leagues or participate in one of the after-school art programs. Folks can buy an annual pass or schedule a public tee time at Brown’s Mill Golf Course, about 2 miles down the road.

Groceries, big box stores and restaurants on Cleveland Avenue
Grocery stores, national retailers and a couple of local restaurants border Cleveland Avenue, on the north end of Hammond Park. Walter’s Soul Food Café has been serving Southern delicacies like gravy-smothered oxtails and banana pudding for over 25 years. Folks can follow the crosswalk across the street to grab a quick bite to eat at American Wings & Seafood. From here, paved sidewalks lead to Kroger, Dollar General and Walgreens in just a half mile, and Walmart Supercenter is right across the interstate.

Bordering interstates and fixed route buses link to Downtown Atlanta
Hammond Park offers easy access to two of Atlanta’s busiest throughways. Interstate 75 forms the community’s east border, and Interstate 85 passes through the west side. Both routes link north to Downtown Atlanta in about 7 miles. And the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is just 5 miles south. The city’s fixed route bus system has several stops in Hammond Park along U.S. Highway 41.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
