East Point Real Estate & Homes for Sale in Georgia

Just seven miles south of downtown Atlanta, East Point is fast becoming a popular respite from the fast urban pace of the big city. The small-town feel of East Point, with its quaint little downtown and historical neighborhoods, coupled with the convenience of having access to neighboring cities via the MARTA, which runs right through the heart of the city, is bringing a wide diversity of city-dwellers to this community. With the assets of this suburban town still largely undiscovered, housing is still affordable and with all the growth occurring, now is the best time to get your foot in the door of your new home in East Point. Nearly 40,000 residents populate the 13.8 square miles of East Point and the number keeps growing. East Point residents have only a ten-minute trip to Atlanta’s Hartsfield airport, and area hospitals and schools are equally accessible. The fields of Educational Health and Social Services represent the highest percentage of industries providing employment, followed by transportation, retail trade, and arts and entertainment. While Atlanta’s wealth of fine dining and recreational amusements is within easy reach, there are plenty of places right in East Point to have a meal, see a show, a movie, go dancing, or listen to local talent at a popular blues bar.
