Renter's Guide to College Park, GA

Rich in history and culture, College Park, GA is about 20 minutes away from Atlanta, GA and an ideal place for individuals and families who want a taste of the city life, while still enjoying the quietude of suburban living.

However, it's still a highly active area and it is home to the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, which is actually the busiest airport in the US. In addition, the Georgia International Convention Center is located here, and so is metro Atlanta's newest and 2nd largest convention center. A few of the nearby cities include East Point, Sunrise, and Hapeville, yet College Park covers around 10 square miles, so there's a lot of ground to explore.

College Park, GA is set in the state's 4th largest historical home district, making it an interesting area to tour whether walking or on wheels. You can just as easily take a quick train ride to everything Atlanta has to offer at anytime.

If you're not accustomed to the Georgian climate, it's important to note that while the winters are short and not too cold, the summers are infamously warm and muggy. More precisely, the temperatures typically vary from 35°F to 90°F throughout the year.
