Virginia Highlands is one of Atlanta's most popular neighborhoods. Located next to Midtown, the Highlands have a long and rich history. Originally created to be a trolley community with close access to commercial venues, this neighborhood has been able to retain the close proximity to residential and commercial areas. Everyone from local artists and musicians, students, and young families live in this area. Atlantans come here for some of the best dining and entertainment options in the city. (Joy Johnston)
