A forested suburb in a storied area of Atlanta
Carroll Heights is adjacent to historic Collier Heights. However, Realtor Nicole Jackson, who sells homes in the neighborhood and works for Pristine Palaces Realty LLC, says they are more than just next-door neighbors. They are almost considered the same place, even if they are divided by Interstate 285. Carroll Heights' other nearest neighbor is a general aviation airport, which is directly north of a sprawling industrial corridor. This historic area of Atlanta, platted in the mid-20th century, was the first planned neighborhood in the United States designed for and financed by the Black community. A part of the neighborhood’s deep history shines through its 100-year-old church. Another anchor of the community is Collier Park, just south. There are also large parks in all directions of Carroll Heights, including the new Westside Reservoir Park, which is connected to the Atlanta Beltline. "With the expansion of the Westside Reservoir Park, home values have increased in Carroll Heights, and it's a draw for investors and homeowners alike," says Realtor and broker associate Juli St George of Keller Williams Realty Intown Atlanta, who's sold homes for a decade. She also notes that this is still one of the most affordable suburbs in the city.

Homes in Carroll Heights are getting top-to-bottom renovations
Ranch styles and bungalows are common across forested Carroll Heights. Most range from the low $200,000s to $300,000s, though fixer-uppers can start in the low $100,000s. Pricing mostly depends on the extent of renovations, as even smaller homes less than 1,000 square feet can go for $300,000 when they’ve had an extensive overhaul. Yards are modest, with short, slim driveways that rarely lead to garages and, more often, carports. Jackson says neighborhood homes can go under contract quickly, adding "especially when you have one completely renovated from top to bottom,” she says.
You'll find newly renovated ranch style homes with car ports in Carroll Heights.

Young Middle School's innovative idea
Carroll Heights is served by Atlanta Public Schools. Students may begin at West Manor Elementary School before transitioning to Young Middle School and Douglass High School. The elementary school earns a C-plus on Niche, the middle school gets a C-rating, and the high school earns a C-minus. Young Middle became the first middle school in the state to transform one of its wings into a "den" for students. "The Den" provides holistic support from designated professionals addressing students on all levels – from academic to emotional. While these schools represent one path, options are open. Atlanta participates in school choice, meaning students can apply to any school with space in the district if the school has been operational for four years.
West Manor Elementary School has a student to teacher ratio of 9 to 1.
Young Middle School receives a C- from Niche and 4 from GreatSchools.

St. Luke's AME Church is a staple of the community
