I’ve been living in Old Fourth Ward for about three years, and while I love the BeltLine access, the rent hikes are getting out of hand. My lease is up soon, and I’m torn between staying put or moving to Kirkwood or Grant Park to save a little money. I work downtown, so I’d prefer to avoid a brutal commute. Has anyone here made that move recently? What neighborhoods feel like a good balance between affordability and still having some walkability?

I live in morningside and love it! We pay $1800 for a 2bed 2bath loft style apartment. We’re in the older section of the complex but it’s affordable and biking distance from all the Virginia highland restaurants/shops and the beltline! I’m in the rock springs village apartments.

Morningside is a gem. The accessibility to most places (not by car) is highly under appreciated in this car centric city

Kirkwood is great. Pretty affordable, good blend of walkability with some shops/restaurants off Hosea, and easy to get to Downtown/Midtown via i20.

I feel that the role should be reserved for employees with experience in the systems they work in.
