The metro Atlanta region is home to over six million people and nearly 150,000 businesses. With a world-class airport, competitive schools, amenities for entertainment, and professional sports, the Atlanta area offers a top-tier quality of life. The region’s interstate highway system, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and the deepwater ports of Savannah and Brunswick make it a premier distribution hub of the Southeast.
Atlanta’s overall industrial market consists of 690 million square feet. EastGroup’s Atlanta assets are positioned within the Northeast/I-85 submarket, Atlanta’s largest and most dynamic industrial submarket, and the North Central/GA 400 submarket, which is outperforming the overall Atlanta market. The Northeast submarket contains over 181 million square feet, or nearly 30% of the overall market, and is characterized by strong fundamentals, a corporate America tenant presence, and excellent accessibility to the Eastern Seaboard. The North Central submarket represents high-end demographics, executive housing and a skilled labor force and is attracting high-tech, financial services, and health care companies in addition to ongoing distribution requirements. The Northwest submarket has seen rapid growth with the I-75 corridor supporting the highest daily truck count in the state.
