Westside
Homes sit near Augusta National and shopping centers
Resting along the Savannah River, which serves as the dividing line to South Carolina, the Westside area is highly commercial. However, homebuyers can find a few neighborhoods interspersed between the restaurants, shopping centers and hotels. Those looking to move here will discover everything from 1950s ranch-style homes to 1980s wooden clapboard townhouses. “There are not a whole lot of single-family homes in that area,” Chivers says. “You have more townhomes and apartments.” The average list price hovers around $200,000. “The market tends to do very well here," Chivers says. "Are things selling the way they were two years ago? No, but they’re still selling. If a home is priced right, it will usually sell in 30 to 45 days.”Sports championships at Westside High School
Public school students may attend schools such as Warren Road Elementary School, Tutt Middle School and Westside High School. Home of the Patriots, the high school boasts a state championship-winning boys basketball team and scores an overall grade of C-plus, according to Niche.Café Dulce and Taqueria El Patron are staples of Westside
From Publix to Dollar General, Westside area residents have easy access to plenty of nationally recognized chains. There are also myriad independent shops and eateries to choose from as well. Start and end the day at Café Dulce, the go-to spot for an espresso or decadent dessert. For something more substantial, head to Taqueria El Patron for the likes of pork tacos crafted with house-made tortillas. “It’s a really busy area, but it gives you a lot of choices for eating out and shopping,” Chivers says. “There is every type of brand-name restaurant there. There are shopping centers and cinemas nearby. There’s a lot to do.”Brookfield Park has a splash pad and green space
While the Westside area is largely comprised of businesses, there’s still outdoor fun to be had. At Warren Road Community Center, locals can shoot some hoops, play a game of tennis or take a jog along the track. Brookfield Park offers two playgrounds and a splash pad to cool off on during the warmer months. “You can live, work and play there,” Chivers says. “It’s a very commercial location. I think it caters to the Millennials. Older people may like a little more laid-back, quiet-type atmosphere. That area is busier.”

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.
