McAfee, located between Memorial Drive and Candler Road, is a residential and commercial Candler-McAfee neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a corridor-style retail rhythm. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Memorial Drive–Candler Road crossroads, where strip plazas, barbershops, takeout counters, and everyday services set a steady, local cadence. The Gallery at South DeKalb anchors errands and indoor walking loops, while the DeKalb History Center at the Historic DeKalb Courthouse adds a civic-cultural counterpoint nearby. Housing leans toward brick ranches and split-levels with deep setbacks and mature trees. Side streets feel quieter, while Memorial Drive keeps the pace with buses and storefront signage. Green breaks come via Shoal Creek Park and the South River corridor, balancing asphalt with trails and open sky.
