    "Summerhill the most historic and oldest community right next to Grant Park. Centrally located right at the heart of downtown Atlanta. Both 75/85 and I-20 are at your disposal for getting to work, shopping or fun very quickly. With new renovations and possibilities happening at the former Turner Field,the worth of this neighborhood will be increasing ."

    "The traffic in Atlanta is horrible, the drivers suck. However, in the neighborhood, there aren't a lot of drivers. But the few drivers on the road drive fast and reckless, so my commute is typically risky. I try not to die."

    "The kids of the neighborhood are so friendly, I see them everyday, and honestly on summer days I buy popsicles just for them. At night it is very rough, the street lights need to be fixed and kids stay out late so make sure the headlights are on."

    "The loud music and rude neighbors are typical of this neighborhood. My neighbors hate me because they think I’m part of gentrification, but I’m not. I live here because it’s cheaper than Kirkwood. But it’s cheaper for a reason: it’s a noisy food desert. "
