Overall safety score

“Go with care. Ben Hill Forest is primarily a quiet, residential enclave, but it is situated in Southwest Atlanta, an area that experiences elevated rates of property crime and opportunistic incidents along adjacent commercial corridors. Visitors visiting residents will find calm streets during the day, but basic urban vigilance is advised, especially after dark.”
