    Most popular places I can think or are the Decatur Square, Emory Village and pool halls around it. There's a Jake's icecream place which a lot of people seem to like, too.

    I'd go out more from Decatur if you wanted to do stuff though, Lenox isn't horribly far away at all.

    FYI, not everyone is a car thief like all these people from bum-****ville think they are. I had my Cuda here for three or four years with no problem, when I moved into an apartment over here from my dads house I couldn't take it there, and since my dad was moving I had him store it in his 20x30 garage. Your car will be fine as long as you lock your doors.

    As far as places to go, it might be limited unless you've got some money, there is downtown Decatur, the square is always nice to go watch people and shop. Emory Village is close to the same but doesn't seem to have as many shops, but more restaurants and CVS type ****. I see Club 29 (Pool hall/bar) packed on the weekends, it's next to O'Reilys on 29 up the street from North Dekalb mall (which has AMC 16). I've never been there since I'm not 21 but my roommate and my girlfriend have and say it's a cool place to hang out for live music and company. It's more or less what you're interested in.

    I don't know if you'd say I'm Eastside, but I lived in a house near the intersection of North Druid Hills and 29 for 16 years, then in an apartment a mile from there and now in another house in the same area, so in 18 years of life, I've never heard of anyone's car being stolen I know. But i know for one thing my address is Decatur, 30033.

    Well, this side is clear then! Haha jk.

    But in all honesty sometimes I leave my windows down at night on accident and my car is never gone, being as easy to steal as anything you could think of, I've seen a car like mine broken into and started with a spoon....

    You stay on the good side of Decatur..If you lived round my way it would be gone.

    Leave it on Candler rd., Glenwood, Mcafee, Columbia dr, Flat Shoals, Gresham, River rd., Wesley Chapel, Stone Mountain, or anywhere off of Memorial Dr. Guarantee you'll be looking for the rest of your after you pick up a couple of locked off the ground.

    I guess I'm glad then....plus I'd hate more of a ****ing commute all the way to Gwinnett.


    I was just pretty much trying to get the point across you don't need a riot shotgun or multiple sets of wheel locks to live over here, especially if she lives off Lavista, that's more towards Tucker/Lakeside High School area, which is pretty nice and upscale.

    When we first moved here from LBC, we moved into Avondale and then over to Columbia Dr., right behind Belvedere Plaza. I remember even going to Kandy Kane Daycare. Lolol. Later, QD.

    Didn't want to read the whole thread, so, sorry if anyone already posted this, but Brickstore and Twains are both awesome bars in "downtown" Decatur. If you like beer and chill atmospheres, definitely check them out.

    thanks everyone! I really had no idea it might get up to 4 pages... but it was fun to read. It gave me some good ideas on where to go and not to go. Maybe a couple of bars to check out.

    Pool halls are always a plus. I love to play, i just haven't in awhile.

    From what i've seen, my area is very nice... the neighbors keep there jag outside.... no worries.

    So if anyone gets big plans PM me. YAY!
