While still considered a “new city” because it was only officially incorporated in 2012, Brookhaven is rich with the iconic, historical southern charm of Atlanta. The school systems (both private and public) are good, hence Brookhaven does attract a lot of families. The other huge draw for Brookhaven is the short drive that it offers into Downtown Atlanta.
“Brookhaven is a great size. It checks a lot of boxes with regard to amenities, location and real estate options. It’s size also lends itself to a real community feel that can get lost in other Atlanta markets”, says Sarah.
Brookhaven has also managed to have created a harmonious balance of urban and suburban. This Urban Suburban Mix offers a sort of best of the both worlds and make it a great place to live. In fact, Brookhaven is widely considered to be one of the best
possible places to live in Georgia.
