Surrounded by the communities of Peachtree Corners, Johns Creek, and Suwanee, Duluth has been called “Tree City” for its dedication to preserving its bounty of greenspaces. Its northwestern border is defined by the Chattahoochee River, and throughout the verdant town, you’ll encounter plenty of recreational opportunities. The motto here is “Pride in the old and new,” as evidenced by the well-preserved historic downtown and the ever-growing commercial and housing areas.

Recently, Duluth has undergone a massive revitalization process that’s greatly increased the city’s value and residential appeal. Duluth has been named among the best, most affordable, and safest suburbs in Georgia and the U.S. It’s well-known for the small-town vibe, but Duluth is still packed with urban conveniences like museums, shopping, dining, and more.
