question about Decatur, GA?

Question

is it ghetto?

Answer 1

Downtown Decatur is nice and has a few restaurants, shops, condos, and lofts. North Decatur (Neighborhoods north of East Ponce de Leon) has many middle/middle upper class neighborhoods with many white, black, and middle eastern residents. South Decatur has a few middle class neighborhoods and a lot of ghetto neighborhoods. Ghetto neighborhoods are areas surrounding Glenwood Rd, Memorial Dr, Candler Rd, Columbia Dr, and Snapfinger Rd. Over 95% of South Decatur residents are black.

Answer 2

Not all of it.



But like any city there are low income areas in Decatur. Calling the entire city a ghetto is a gross misrepresentation. For the most part Decatur is an upper middle class town very close to the city of Atlanta.

Answer 3

Downtown Decatur: no

Unincorporated part of Dekalb County(below I-20) commonly called Decatur: yes

In every city, there are ghettos. I have travelled by it with no problems.
