People in John's Creek wish they could afford property in Buckhead. It's a big area (more than one neighborhood), but parts of it are neighborhoods with names like "Tuxedo Park" that contain legitimate mansions, including the governor's mansion. People like Tyler Perry and Elton John live there. You get the idea.

Forgot about those parts. When I think Buckhead I think of the area near the mall. When I think rich and too afraid of the poors for even Alpharetta, I think John’s creek.

I mean, the higher-density parts are surely incredibly expensive, too. Elton John's place (which he apparently sold a few years ago for over $7M) was a high-rise condo on Peachtree Road. And that was an older building near West Wesley; I'd expect newer buildings near Paces Ferry or Lenox Road to be even higher $/ft^2^.
