I have experience in both communities, and you just can't make a broad statement on which is best per situation. Marda Loop is a snoozer for me (streets are quiet), and the commute sucks going up that hill haha. I'm in the condo market, condos in ML are crap, no views. High floor expansive views are high priority for me. Lots of "hype around ML, but seeing I've been here 9+ years on and off, I'm ready to move on.
East Village would be great, but obviously prices are much higher.
ps...I own a rental in Altadore...that is a whole different story.
Anyways, moving on, agree to disagree lol.
Beltline is diverse, and you can get extremes on both ends of the spectrum there. I'm sure you won't be looking for a 1960's boarding house with fire code issues.
