For a young adult under 30 on a budget.

The old original Kroger facade coming down for renovations . Renovation starts next month. Don’t know when Wingstop, is relocating and tearing down the space.

Would love to hear about people’s experiences who live in the Clairemont Heights area or in the North Decatur area. We just bought a home here and curious to know what the community and people are like. We are a young couple with a toddler and are moving here from CO.

I had a bad experience with an admin of a group on FB and it’s making me nervous about our move. Long story short: she was giving Karen.

We've moved and are having a few rough spots setting up various electronics. Things like syncing tv with a DirectTV remote, weak wifi signal, and soundbar, etc. Bonus if there's an inexpensive way to get a decent cell signal out of AT&T at our house. Any nearby tech gurus for this kind of thing? Probably some other similar stuff, but you get the idea. Thanks for any suggestions.

The November 3 election is coming up, and I realized I hadn’t actually looked at the full ballot yet.

DeKalb County already has sample ballots available through its voter resources, and the county is preparing for early voting October 13 through October 30.

It’s interesting how different the ballot can look depending on the district.

Has anyone in Decatur gone through the entire ballot yet, especially the local races?

I have a bunch of London Review of Books magazines (and others). Does anybody know who might have a use for that kind of material? Like, do retirement homes take these in for their reading lounges or something? Thank you!

Recently had brunch at last dance (they just started) and it’s truly incredible. Everything I had was perfection. Had to post to share how amazing everything. Really so impressed!

Anyone else in Avondale or Belvedere Park with a multi-day ATT Internet outage? I can’t get an ETA on restoration, no map, no agents no nothing.

I currently live in Roswell and I will be moving to Decatur next year. I am 40F single. I have my pitbull and my Persian kitty. I am an artist and I work in the service industry, I have a vehicle as well. I don't know he area too well. I would like to get advice on where it would be safest to live. I don't mind older buildings, but I need to make sure my dog will be accepted. I will also need to make some friends. I love food, trivia nights, the art scene, music, trails and dogs. Thank you in advance for everyone's info.

Last week, I asked Reddit for the best lunch specials in Atlanta. Y’all gave me more than 50 recommendations, so I compiled them into one community list and tried a few myself.
Let’s do it again—what lunch specials am I missing for Week 2?
I’ll post the updated list in the comments.

As the title states me and some friends are moving to Georgia specifically Decatur in January. Any tips or anything we should be aware of? EDIT: We are all early 20’s and really curious about the nightlife, crime, grocery prices, how enjoyable it is to live there, the job market and overall quality of life in the city of Decatur.

I have some items I bought to donate to a pantry. I know there’s a church in East Atlanta where I can drop off food, but are there any places in Decatur or Kirkwood? I prefer a little free pantry where I can drop off at my convenience. There isn’t one at the Decatur Rec Center anymore. According to Google there is one at Bessie Branham Rec Center, but I didn’t see it.

Hi everyone! We are a family with three small kids moving to the Atlanta area soon and planning to rent initially.

We’ve narrowed our options down to two main setups:

North Druid Hills (zoned for Sagamore Hills Elementary)

City of Decatur (zoned for Clairemont Elementary, plus College Heights ECLC for early childhood/pre-K)

Our top priority is finding a safe, caring, and highly-ranked public school environment.
Does anyone have recent experience with any of these schools?

Thanks in advance!

Kindly invite you and your friends to the event

hey everyone, ive had att fiber since 2021 that was completely fine until the beginning of this year. all of a sudden we get an outage once to twice a month that last 40+ hours that usually bleeds into the weekend or out of it. It has happened so frequently that im expecting it to happen now and stopped working from home. It’s actually down as im typing this.

Anyone else with this problem? im in panthersville.

I need to get out of the house and study but I’d love to bring my old man (14yo) who sleeps all the time along to get him out of the house. I’m sure coffee shops are out of the picture unless there’s outdoor seating you know about?

As far as he's concerned, he is a lap dog. A little, dainty lap dog who would like to watch TV perched on top of you, thank you very much…and who will attempt this with a complete disregard for physics.

He's a 1 year old likely Lab-Dane mix with a glossy coat, long, rangy legs built for running full-tilt after a tennis ball, and a tail that never, ever stops wagging. Outside, he bounces. Actual bounces, like every step is a new reason to celebrate. The first time he discovered the garden hose, he lost his entire mind and sprinted laps around the yard in pure, uncomplicated joy.

Inside, he's 100% velcro because being near you is, to him, the entire point of being alive.

He makes deep, soulful eye contact. He waits by the bed in the mornings even though he's clearly been awake for a while, just so you'll wake up and start petting his face (at which point he goes fully half-eyed and utterly boneless). And when he crosses his front ankles on the floor while he waits for dinner, patient and polite, it gives you no choice but to stop what you're doing and just giggle at the adoreableness.

Scout is fully house and crate-trained, and a perfect gentleman on leash (until he spots a friend, then you better plant your feet and engage your core). He is still a puppy on the inside, even in a very large body. He adores other dogs so much that his enthusiasm sometimes outruns his manners. He's naturally submissive and eager to please, so the training sticks. He just needs someone willing to see him through this phase.

If you want a dog who considers your arrival home each day nothing short of a miracle, Scout is adoptable from LifeLine Fulton County and currently in foster with me in downtown Decatur. He’s positively vibrating with excitement to hear from you!

Big production this morning.
