In the 1920s, most of the small storefronts on the northern end consisted of a pharmacy, a hot dog stand and a barbershop. Today, retail is much more built out with several restaurants, boutiques and art galleries along the avenue. Calle Latina is a local Latin street food joint with a patio, while Three Taverns is a local microbrewery that offers Prosper House pizza Wednesdays through Sundays. Cremalosa serves its own handmade gelato alongside coffee and pastries, and Publix is the closest grocery store 2 miles north.The educational pathway to Agnes State College
Winnona Park Elementary is an expeditionary learning school with a 12-to-1 student-teacher ratio, while Beacon Hill Middle is an International Baccalaureate World School. The educational pathway ends at Decatur High School, which offers technical education through its career academy. All three schools earned A ratings on Niche. After graduating, many women in the community will continue their learning a mile west at the all-girls Agnes State College, which earned a B. A Waldorf school is also available on the east end.

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.
