Where Vintage Vinyl Meets Vegan Tacos

🧭Generally defined as the area: where Moreland, Euclid, and McLendon converge into a chaotic five way intersection, radiating outward a few blocks in each direction with the Sevananda Co-op and Junkman's Daughter as the commercial anchors

📌Well known for: America's oldest counterculture district that refuses to gentrify and refuses to acknowledge that home prices suggest they already are

👕You can spot a Little Five Points local by: their sleeve tattoos and aggressive refusal to shop at chains

👍Locals live here because: conformity makes them physically uncomfortable and cool dive bars

👎The downside to Little Five Points is: parking is a blood sport on weekends

✨The general vibe is: aggressively weird and unapologetic with an active homeless population spanging while you make your way to the next meetup spot
