The weather in Atlanta is pleasant for walking with warm temperatures and lots of sunny days throughout the year. Winters are cooler and there is more rain, however, there is little snow, so a warm rain jacket is usually adequate for dog walkers to take their furry friends for a daily jaunt. Heat spells with high humidity in the summer are more common and can be uncomfortable for walking with your pup. Heat-related illnesses are a risk. Walk at cooler times of the day, find shady walkways, don't over stress you or your pet with excessive exercise, and make sure you both drink lots of water.
The area has lots of spans with no sidewalks, so pedestrians and pups walking the Carey Park district often need to share the roads with local traffic. Walk facing oncoming cars, keep your dog leashed, and watch out for vehicles when walking on residential roads.
Homes in the area moderate in size with large rural properties. There are also several unique apartment complexes laid out in semi-circular structures on the northwest side of Carey Park.
