What You Can Expect When Moving to Atlanta’s Koreatown

What You Can Expect When Moving to Atlanta’s Koreatown

First, some history. Koreans have been arriving in Atlanta since the 1960s where there were ample job opportunities, cheap housing, and access to higher education like Georgia Tech and Emory University, settling along the Buford Highway corridor in Doraville, where many of them set up shops that exist to this day.. As time passed into the 80s, more and more came by the droves, establishing themselves all across the Metro Atlanta area, but especially in Gwinnett County. Markets were opening. Churches sprang up. Restaurants were spreading. Business was booming. According to the 2019 US Census, 51,000 people who identify as Korean live in the Atlanta area, and that number has only been going up since then. Unlike other cities like New York or Los Angeles, there’s no real designated place that we can call “Koreatown” here, since Atlanta has such a dynamic culture of people mixing in shared cultural spaces. Still, if you’re interested in migrating to the neighborhoods with the most Korean presence, you can probably find the highest concentration of people in Duluth and Suwanee, where you can look up and see billboards, bakeries, and banks with signs written in English and Korean. You can bet that the Korean community has a pretty significant impact on the cultural landscape of Atlanta, because no matter where you go, you can find dentists, mechanics, stylists, teachers, and more of Korean descent. It might even shock you if you’re coming from Korea for the first time to discover how many places you can go without using any English at all! It’ll be like you never left, but with a Chick-fil-a down the block.

Once you’re here though, you’ll want to get plugged in and connected as soon as possible to really experience the richness that the Korean community can offer. There are plenty of opportunities available throughout the area for just that. In fact, you can dig deep and ask yourself what you’re most passionate about. Is it tennis? Join a Korean tennis league like the Atlanta Korean Tennis Association. Or how about community service and volunteering? There are actually several non-profits that all serve the Korean community here such as the Korean American Coalition and the Korean American Association of Greater Atlanta. If you’re a student, there are Korean Undergraduate Student Associations at many of our fine universities. The spiritual life of Koreans in Atlanta can’t be understated either. There are over 100 churches and three Buddhist temples here where you can join with fellow believers.
