Wash U is probably about as similar to Emory as you will get. Rice and Vanderbilt would probably also fit the bill. Those all fall into the reach for everyone category. For a safety take a look at Furman. I agree with @merc81 and @LionsTigersAndBears suggestions as well. I would just note that William and Mary isn’t in an urban area and Davidson is about 20 minutes from Charlotte and quite a bit smaller than the others. FWIW I am an Emory alum with a kid at William and Mary. Feel free to reach out if you have questions about either of those schools
