The Greenwood Acres neighborhood was created in 1964.  It is located off of Briarlake Road in Dekalb County, Georgia.  While not technically within the city limits of Atlanta, it is very close to the city center.  We are situated inside the Perimeter in the northeast quadrant with a drive of only 15 minutes to Mid-town.  Our community is comprised of custom built homes made up of traditional ranches, split level homes, colonial style homes and homes of mid-century architecture.  In order to keep our uniqueness, we do not have a home owners association with covenants governing thinks like what color to paint your house, or what your mailbox must look like.  Rather, we have a civic association (Greenwood Acres Civic Association).  

The GACA has several committees that work together to make sure that Greenwood Acres remains as the lovely neighborhood that we all love.
