Overview

Welcome to Dunwoody

Located just north of Interstate 285 and east of Georgia 400, Dunwoody is one of Atlanta's most sought-after suburbs and a major employment hub. Incorporated in 2008, it covers 12.97 square miles in DeKalb County and has grown to approximately 52,000 residents who enjoy one of the strongest Swim and Tennis community cultures in metro Atlanta.

What makes Dunwoody unusual among Atlanta suburbs is that it contains both a charming historic village and a major corporate and retail corridor in the same city boundaries. Perimeter Center houses Fortune 500 companies, Perimeter Mall, and direct MARTA rail access. Dunwoody Village, four miles north, feels like an entirely different town: Williamsburg-style architecture, local restaurants, and walkable streets lined with mature trees.

Perimeter Center Urban, connected, Fortune 500 energy. Perimeter Mall, MARTA rail, and Class-A office towers. Luxury high-rise condos, lofts, new construction mixed-use residences. Corporate commuters, young professionals, lock-and-leave buyers

Parks and Recreation

Nature and Community

  • Dunwoody Nature Center A sanctuary of wetlands and hiking trails embedded in the urban fabric. Features interactive nature programming and one of the only naturalist-led trail systems in an Atlanta suburb of Dunwoody's size.
  • Georgetown Recreation Center The anchor of the Georgetown/North Dunwoody zone. Active programming for all ages, sports facilities, and a strong community calendar that gives this quieter corridor its distinct identity.
