What is most striking about this area of Athens is that both the ratio of list price to sold is higher than overall area numbers, but also the average days on market is much less than that of the overall Athens area. In this area of town you might find a home for as little as $100,000 with less than a 1,000 square feet and as much as $300,000 with 2,500 square feet worth of volume. I think what makes this neighborhood so attractive is its' walkability. Both Talmadge Heights and General Hospital Walk Scores below.
