Avondale

I am starting a new job at the GBI HQ in Decatur next week (April) and I'm currently looking at a house for rent on Banner Elk drive in Stone Mountain. Its off exit 5 when coming from the north, Hairston Rd, Elam Rd area. Anyone know about the area as far as crime or any other problems? The neighborhood looks well kept, but I am not familiar with the greater Decatur area at all. Any help would be appreciated!
