Sandtown

Located in Southwest Atlanta, Sandtown carries a rich legacy as one of the city's, and even the county's, oldest African American communities, dating as far back as the 1800s. This historic neighborhood, situated along Campbellton Road, extends into Douglas County, combining the charm of a bedroom community with convenient access to Atlanta's urban amenities and excitement.

The crown jewel of outdoor recreation in Sandtown is the Cascade Springs Nature Preserve, offering hiking trails, a moss-covered historic springhouse, and stunning natural springs. The nearby Sandtown Park serves as the keystone of Sandtown's recreation, with green space for community gatherings and outdoor activities, a playground, and afterschool programming for the neighborhood's children.
