Atlanta is the metro's population and healthcare center and has by far the deepest inventory of senior care, from small Personal Care Homes tucked into neighborhoods like Grant Park and West End to larger Assisted Living Communities and CCRCs concentrated in Midtown, Buckhead, and along the Druid Hills corridor. Note that Buckhead is a district of the City of Atlanta, not a separately incorporated city.
