Decatur Highlands

Decatur Highlands is a garden-style rental community with 386 apartments in three-story buildings at 10 Highland Lake Cir. Completed in 1996, it is set on its own circular drive outside the Decatur city limits, in unincorporated DeKalb County despite its Decatur address.

What amenities does Decatur Highlands have?

The community’s website says pets are allowed and lists a fitness center. Washers and dryers are listed for the apartments, with a footnote that features may vary by floor plan, so ask which units have them. Fees and pet rules change, so confirm them with the leasing office before you apply.

Where is Decatur Highlands located?

The property is in a residential part of the 30033 ZIP code, well outside the city of Decatur and its downtown square. The surrounding area is largely suburban, with single-family subdivisions, other apartment complexes and shopping centers strung along the main roads. Emory University, the CDC and downtown Decatur are all trips by car. Clairmont Reserve Apartment Homes is the closest other building in this directory, about 0.2 miles away, and Arden Vue is about 0.9 miles away.

Getting around from Decatur Highlands

No MARTA rail station lies within two miles, so residents typically depend on driving. Interstate 285 is the main highway for trips around the Perimeter, and Interstate 85 leads toward Midtown and Downtown. MARTA buses operate on the larger roads in this part of DeKalb County and can be used to reach Blue Line stations for rail connections.

Who is Decatur Highlands a good fit for?

Renters with a car who want an established, mid-size garden community in a suburban setting within driving distance of Emory and the CDC. If a washer and dryer in the apartment is a must, check the floor plan first.
