Druid Hills
Druid Hills and its 15,000 residents have the distinct pleasure of being part of the city of Atlanta and unincorporated DeKalb County. For this reason, some call it the “perfect suburb,” a nickname since the late 19th century. Over the years, the historical neighborhood with its gorgeous residences, charming retail shops and restaurants, award-winning schools, and exciting cultural opportunities has attracted some of Atlanta’s most notable residents.
