Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods in Atlanta

2 neighborhoods compared — 7 shuls, 2 kosher stores and restaurants, 5 day schools and 2 mikvaos on the map.

Metropolitan Atlanta's Orthodox community has grown quickly through Sunbelt relocation, and it has two centers. Toco Hills, intown along LaVista Road, is the heart of it: five shuls, the well-known Kosher Kroger, Torah Day School and a mikvah, in an affordable neighborhood.

Sandy Springs, just north of the city, is newer, smaller and more upscale, around The Kehillah and Chabad of Georgia, with easy reach to Toco Hills.

A dot means we have not mapped that category there yet, not that it has none.
