Awesome Spot

Love this spot! Spacious apartment, gym is solid, having access to multiple pools is great, very nice neighborhood mix of young adults, students, families, and seniors. Scenery is good. Feel price is VERY reasonable, especially for having a roommate. I think even adding all my costs to my rent it cost of living is still only about $1.1k to $1.2k per month. Management staff can be slow but is generally solid. Having to take trash across the entire complex is not ideal. Buildings and appliances can be on the older side but for the most part they work well enough

Close to Emory, but not great management

It is on the Executive Park Emory Shuttle Line
No breed restrictions, which is great if you have a breed that many complexes ban (e.g., German Shepherd, Staffy, Pitbull, etc.)
Great pool, gym is meh

Other apartments have nicer finishes. Even though they are more expensive, they have more timely maintenance and fewer management issues

Great Goizueta community, average room interior, inconvenient for groceries shopping

Many Goizueta MBAs live here, which is a big bonus. It is on the Executive Park shuttle line, which is helpful for commuting to school.
The rooms are spacious but a little old. There are better options at the same price.
Inconvenient for groceries shopping if you don't have a vehicle. The nearest grocery store is about 25-30 mins walk.

Post Briarcliff

Laid back, quiet apartment complex. Mostly young adults and seniors. Not many younger kids. Pool is nice in Summer. Gym is small but functional. Maintenance responsive when needed. Management is fine. Perfect location for school with Emory/MARTA bus stop nearby, about 2 miles from parking deck as well if you drive. Good location for spouses who work and need easy access to interstate (I-85 <2 miles north of complex).

Nice

Nice location (close to campus). Near a lot of neighborhoods/shopping centers with lots of grocery stores and restaurants. Not the cutest area/not a lot of walking areas nearby. The apartment itself is a little older but they are nice. There are a lot of grill areas/2 pool areas. There are also a lot of medical students in the complex.

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.
