What Locals Say about Beach Institute

  • Kaitlin S.
    "Normal issues for downtown area. College kid parties, package theft from front door, & sometimes people will dig through the trash. "
  • Lfryals
    "There’s not a lot of children here, but it’s because of the school zoning. It’s also a party heavy/air bnb area. "
  • Lfryals
    "Most beautiful street in the country. Lots of history and character. It’s like living in a little European city. "
  • Alyssa N.
    "There are parks everywhere, and a dog park across Broad. Most residents have at least one dog. There are, at least in my neighborhood, containers with free pickup bags provided. There is not much traffic except on major streets like Price. It’s a great place to walk, and very pet-friendly."
  • Nancy K.
    "Put your car away and walk to all the great things that the Historic District offers. One of the reasons we like living here is that we can walk to EVERYTHING!"
  • Robert N.
    "Awesome area, close to Krogers, Forstyh park, buses, grammer school on east board. SCAD building within walking distance. Never had any safety issues. Firefly was my nightly stomp, awesome food short walk home... Recommend to anyone..."
