Intown Atlanta (or as an adjective, "intown") is a term very frequently used in metro Atlanta to designate an area containing parts of the City of Atlanta and bordering communities. The definition of "intown" varies significantly: ==Strictest definition== According to "Intown Elite Real Estate Services" the strictest definition of "intown" includes only Downtown and Midtown Atlanta and the surrounding, mostly pre-WWII neighborhoods that contain unique destinations that draw customers from across metro Atlanta. * Examples of such neighborhoods include: * * Grant Park with the zoo and Cyclorama * * Virginia-Highland and Edgewood with their concentrations of shops and restaurants, or * * Midtown West, Cabbagetown and Reynoldstown with their industrial architectural heritage, hip coffee shops and galleries * However, Buckhead is excluded from this definition of "intown", considered a separate area due to its size, importance and physical distance from Downtown Atlanta * Decatur may or may not be included in this definition * West End was referred to as an Intown Neighborhood as early as 1982.〔West End Metamorphosis from Suburban Town to Intown Neighborhood, Timothy J. Crimmins, The Atlanta Historical Journal, Summer/Fall 1982〕 * Central neighborhoods such as Pittsburgh and Mechanicsville which do not have attractions, or shops and restaurants that attract significant numbers of outsiders are usually not included * Sources using this definition include Where Magazine,〔(Where Atlanta )〕 Intown Elite.〔(Intown Elite Real Estate Services )〕 and Intown Drew.〔(Intown Drew Realtor )〕 * A Google Maps search for businesses that include the word "Intown" returns results that conform closely to this definition.〔http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=intown&sll=33.748995,-84.387982&sspn=0.244359,0.63652&g=atlanta&safe=on&ie=UTF8&ll=33.755744,-84.388046&spn=0.230066,0.63652&z=11〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Intown Atlanta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
