Transportation in Atlanta

Located in southwest Atlanta, the historic Fort McPherson neighborhood sits approximately 5 miles from downtown, making it an accessible option for city commuters. The area is well-connected to Atlanta's transportation network, with easy access to Interstate 85 and the MARTA rail system via the Oakland City and Fort McPherson stations on the red and gold lines. This strategic position allows residents of apartments for rent in Fort McPherson to reach downtown Atlanta in just 15 minutes by train or car. The neighborhood borders East Point and is a short drive from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, making it particularly convenient for frequent travelers or airport employees.

Fort McPherson's rental prices are typically more affordable than Atlanta's average rent of $1,607 for one-bedroom apartments. The neighborhood showcases historic military architecture and expansive green spaces that create a distinctive character. Recent redevelopment efforts have transformed the former army base into a mixed-use community with new shopping and dining options. Residents enjoy walking to nearby Cascade Road businesses while maintaining a quieter lifestyle than in Atlanta's more densely populated areas. For renters seeking proximity to downtown without downtown prices, apartments for rent in Fort McPherson offer an increasingly appealing option.
