Normaltown

If you have an old soul or cherish everything retro in life, Normaltown might be the place for you. Normaltown, named after the Normal School for teachers, is located adjacent to the University of Georgia’s 57-acre Health Sciences Campus, Piedmont Athens Regional Medical Center, and a 40-acre YMCA. It’s also in the award-winning Chase Street Elementary school district.

Normaltown is a wonderfully relaxed neighborhood that is walkable and bikeable to the Normaltown commercial district which features a delicious array of locally-owned restaurants, bars, breweries and shops including Automatic Pizza, Square One Fish Co., Hi-Lo Lounge, The Old Pal, Normal Bar, and Athentic Brewing. A vibrant nightlife, art scene, local breweries, and quaint shops are what make Normaltown a highly desirable place to find a home.
