"Newer community with lots of promise"

Princeton Lakes is located on the south-side of Atlanta, in what some might consider the Camp Creek area. Rightfully so, it is situated a little ways off of Camp Creek Parkway. It is just minutes away from Interstate 285, which is super convenient for accessing nearby amenities.

There are several popular attractions near this area. The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is only a few miles away. This is perfect, if you are a frequent traveler, because you don’t have to stress yourself out about the drive to and from the airport.
This area is a fairly new development, and has plenty of new shops, restaurants and housing options for people in the community to enjoy.

If you are an avid shopper you might want to swing by the Camp Creek Market Place. This shopping center houses stores such as Ross, Lowe’s, Marshall’s, Old Navy and Target. There are also several popular restaurant choices in the vicinity as well. Red Lobster, Ruby Tuesday and Carino's Italian, are just a few places you might opt to choose from. I must admit, that I’m a big Red Lobster fan. I think the cheese bread that that they have, really has a hold on me. So, when I’m in this area, I like to swing by to grab a bite. There is also a nice movie theater nearby.

Housing is still relatively affordable in this area (especially for the amount of space you get). Most of the structures are newer, and were built sometime in the mid 2000’s or sooner. A lot of the subdivisions here have “cookie- cutter” homes that are almost 100% identical to the other homes in close proximity. Sometimes this area gets a bad rep. People like to say that there is a lot of crime here. But, I don’t think there’s more crime here than most other parts of the city. I guess the best way to know is to try it out for yourself.
