This neighborhood is trying to negotiate with Atlanta to secede from Atlanta and incorporate as their own city. The police force is just one reason, I am sure.

I'd be shocked if that ever happened. The reason: Buckhead is a much higher tax base than many other parts of ATL and dems fight for $$$ like flies on poop.srothstein wrote: ↑Thu Jun 10, 2021 7:20 am This neighborhood is trying to negotiate with Atlanta to secede from Atlanta and incorporate as their own city.

Re: GA: no place but Atlanta
I recall seeing an article that Buckhead provided something like 41% of Atlanta’s tax base.
That’d hurt.
But, I don’t blame them. We’ll, they did choose to live in Atlanta, so none of this should be a surprise to them.
