Nestled 15 miles northeast of Downtown Atlanta in the suburbs, the city of Tucker prides itself on its supportive community, welcoming environment, and amenities. Many small businesses, including services, restaurants, and shops, make this part of town so unique and charming. A part of DeKalb County, this town believes in community organizations, seasonal festivals, and commercial development.
Locals look forward to the many city events that happen in the square along Main Street, including Tucker Days and the Taste of Tucker. Henderson Park is a place where residents can enjoy a large green space, playground, and sports field. And if you’re a history buff, hiker, or lover of the outdoors, you’ll be happy to hear that Tucker is just north of Stone Mountain Park, one of Georgia’s most popular attractions. In fact, this historic site is the most visited destination in the state, and it’s a stone’s throw from town.
Locals enjoy the wooded residential streets, friendly community, and the surprisingly affordable apartments, houses, and condos available for rent. Interstate 285 puts residents in a premier location for commuting, but Tucker has plenty to offer on its own without even having to leave town, like the expansive Northlake Mall off of Briarcliff Road.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
