Buckhead


Buckhead which is sometimes called Buckhead Village and denoted on some signs as Buckhead Community, is a community, comprising several neighborhoods, forming roughly the northern one-fifth of Atlanta, Georgia. Buckhead is one of Atlanta's most important business districts, and includes Atlanta's wealthiest neighborhoods. Noteworthy residents include the Govenor's mansion and part-time resident Elton John.

Buckhead acquired its unusual name from a long-gone local tavern that prominently displayed a large stuffed buck's head. It was annexed by Atlanta in 1952, following an earlier attempt by Mayor William B. Hartsfield in 1946 that was voted down by residents.

The main north-south street is Peachtree Road, which extends south into the heart of the city as Peachtree Street. This name change is significant in that it defines a border between Buckhead and midtown. The area north of Buckhead, beyond the Atlanta city limit, is Sandy Springs.

Buckhead, like all areas of Atlanta, is a part of the Atlanta Public Schools district. Local private schools include the Westminster Schools, The Galloway School, The Lovett School, Atlanta International School, and Pace Academy.

Although there are some moderately priced homes in the area, a majority of the homes and condos start around the $500,000 mark and extend well beyond $10,000,000. Buckhead is also an entertainment and shopping mecca, where shoppers spend in excess of $1 billon a year. Lenox Square Mall and Phipps Plaza, two of the most sought after shopping destinations in the Southeast are located diagonally across from each other and these 2 sister malls when combined account for more than 350 stores and boutiques ranging from Abecrombie & Fitch to Gucci.

Local residents, with some justification, often call Buckhead the "Beverly Hills of the South."
