Great place for students

This apartment combines everything I wanted when moving to Atlanta to attend Emory. It's close to campus, rent is reasonable, the apartment is nice, and the amenities are great (2 pools, and a gym that's decent enough not to need a separate membership). Also it has Google Fiber, which is a big plus.

There's also a campus bus stop right across the street, and a ton of students live on the property. There's a good mix of grad students, young professionals, and older residents that makes it a fun, yet quiet place to live. It's close to a few grocery stores and restaurants even though it's in a suburban area.

Good Location, Average Place

It is convenient to campus, but the quality of the interior is average. Appliances and finishes are on the cheap side. Pool access is great. Gym is small and I prefer to use the on campus gym as a result.

Nice & Safe Community/Apts with Room for Improvement

I enjoy living here. Extremely close to campus, a lot of other Emory grad students live here, etc. My biggest complaints are: regular (at least once per month) outages (e.g., power, internet) and the company they use for appliances rental (washer/dryer) is not very good/responsive.

Solid Grad School Apartment

Post is a standard apartment complex with all the basic amenities. Close to Goizueta, safe, and a great place to live. Nothing fancy but works for grad school.

Great location!

Post is a great place because it is close to school and also has a lot of amenities (pool, gym, tennis courts, etc.). The one downside is that it is a bit older of a property so you won't find granite counter tops or other more high end features. Overall, it's a great spot and I've found management to always be helpful!

Close to Emory

Rent went up dramatically each year, but it was a great time for the 3 years I lived there. No complaints.

Typical Apartment

Post is super conveniently located for school and classes. Shuttle stop to campus is near by, ten to fifteen minutes to the "nice mall," fifteen minutes to fun neighborhoods like Virginia Highland, etc. There are a few places within walking distance to grab food, and a drink, but if you want to live where the night life is, this probably isn't the best option, though everything is convenient to get to by Uber. Also decently quiet; I never hear my neighbors. A lot of other Goizueta people are here, which is always nice for carpooling and getting together.

I have lived in several apartment complexes for the last few years, and I would rate this as one of the best ones I have been in as far ease of getting packages and mail outside of leasing office hours, and facilities such as grilling, pool, and fitness center. No pet rent, just a one time pet fee so definitely ends up saving money if you stay for a while.

Getting around North Druid Hills


North Druid Hills Reviews

150 reviews
It's a prime location for getting around the city! I can get to midtown, Decatur, inman park, etc. in about a 20 min drive or less. The drive to school each morning is about 10-15 mins with little to no traffic. The area is safe with tons of restaurants and shopping. The only downside is that it's not close to any prime nightlife scene, but Ubers aren't too expensive. Incredibly safe which is something I was looking for as a woman living alone. There's no perfect place, but for the amount of space I have (850 sq ft), safety, proximity to school, and easy access to other areas in the city, it can't be beat.
North Druid Hills is a lovely neighborhood and one that I am happy to be living in as my first exposure to Atlanta. There are beautiful tree lined streets and its proximity to Emory is a great selling point.
Beautiful houses and trees, calm, quiet community.
It's an open area with trees. Very close to Emory campus as well as the Toco Hills plaza (Kroger, Publix, many restaurants). Further down Clairmont at the intersection with North Decatur road, there's another Publix as well as some other restaurants in the plaza.

Golden Drop Cafe--which has outdoor seating incase the pandemic is still uncontrolled when you read this--is just 3 min. down the road. Mason Mill Park, which has tennis courts, a pavillion, and walking trails, is also very near.
Very convenient location as far being somewhat close to a lot of different areas though it itself isn't where the night life or all the best restaurant areas are. Lots of grocery options very close by, including Whole Foods, Krogers and Publix.
My wife and I love walking through the beautiful homes in the local neighborhood. It is a very safe area even at night.
You can find any type of store or restaurant that you would ever need within a 5-15 minute drive.
My wife and I go on walks around sunset most nights through the neighborhood. Have never felt unsafe. Neighbors are all very friendly along our walks. Lots of beautiful homes to gawk at.
