Overall safety score

“Skip. Bankhead Courts is an economically distressed and predominantly vacant former housing development site in Northwest Atlanta that offers virtually no attractions or amenities for standard tourists. High violent and property crime rates along the surrounding Donald Lee Hollowell corridor, combined with poor pedestrian infrastructure, make it an area to avoid unless visiting specifically for community-based purposes.”
