Bracket set to officially decide Best Atlanta Neighborhood of 2024

The people have spoken, the stakes are enormous, and Urbanize’s fourth-annual Best Atlanta Neighborhood tourney is set to begin!

As part of our efforts to spotlight the latest and greatest of Atlanta’s built environment, the time has come to start the most important quest of all: Crowning the city’s top neighborhood of the year, as determined by whatever criteria you see fit.

To come up with Best Atlanta Neighborhood 2024 seeding, we asked for neighborhood nominations over the past week on the homepage, Twitter, Facebook, and now Instagram (where exactly zero nominations were cast). ITP cities, as always, were allowed in the tourney. 

Midtown takes pole position in 2024 with the most nominations of any neighborhood, followed by Inman Park, another heavyweight in Old Fourth Ward, East Atlanta, and so forth. Interestingly, all of this year’s top four (except Midtown) are past champions, which could hint at another repeat victory (a feat achieved only by West End) in the works.

Last year’s champion and current Golden Urby Chalice of Champions holder, Hapeville, didn’t garner enough nominations for the 2024 contest. (In fact, zero nods for H-ville). Ditto for 2021’s winner, Mozley Park, and 2022’s, Avondale Estates. So that means there’s plenty of room for fresh blood this year. (Unlike last year, thankfully, “Dildoville,” The Bluff, and “Anywhere But Kirkwood” were not nominated.)

So this is your Sweet 16. Get your neighborhood pride ready, ATL. The first round of competitions begins next week! 

Any predictions?
