Duluth is a city in Gwinnett County, Georgia and a suburb of Atlanta located in the Metro Atlanta area.

Much of the area called Johns Creek is considered to be in Duluth, though it will become its own city in the new year. The population was 22,122 at the 2000 census, making it the second most populated city in Gwinnett behind Lawrenceville.

Duluth is a popular and rapidly developing suburb of Atlanta, falling close to Interstate 85, which allows a quick commute to Atlanta. It has schools at all levels up through high school and is home to Gwinnett Place Mall, a central commercial center of the northeast Metro Atlanta area. Nearby attractions include Stone Mountain, Lake Lanier, and the Aurora Theatre. Its Peachtree Industrial Boulevard is the same road as Atlanta's Peachtree Road and Peachtree Street.

The Gwinnett Gladiators of the ECHL, a professional minor league ice hockey team, plays in the Arena at Gwinnett Center, which opened in 2003 in Duluth. In the TPC at Sugarloaf golf course, the Bellsouth Classic tournament is played just before The Masters. Atlanta Athletic Club is also in Duluth, which hosted the 1976 U.S. Open Golf Tournament and the 1981 and 2001 PGA Championship Golf Tournaments, as well as being home to the trophies of golfer Bobby Jones.

The Duluth-area 30097 ZIP code is also home to some of the most expensive neighborhoods in the Metro Atlanta area, including Sugarloaf Country Club, St. Marlo, and St. Ives.

Duluth has an annual Fall Festival celebrating the season of autumn, now held in their newly-built town center, where several buildings of traditional architecture are located, along with a pavilion, a fountain, and City Hall. The city is also deemed the new Koreatown in the metro Atlanta area due to the rise of Korean-owned businesses in the area, especially in the area around the grocery store Super-H Mart.

History

Duluth is an old city, with its origins stretching back to the early 1800's, when it was primarily forest land. Initially only Cherokee Indians lived in the area, but with the creation of Gwinnett County, Georgia it was opened to white settlers.

The shared names between Duluth, Georgia and the more well-known Duluth, Minnesota are no coincidence. Originally called Howell's Crossing after one of its founders Evan Howell, grandfather of Atlanta mayor Evan P. Howell, the town was renamed in 1871 to match the name of Minnesota's Duluth (which in turn is named for Daniel Greysolon, Sieur du Lhut) when it was named in a bill in the U.S. Congress to fund rail to that remote town.

Today, Duluth is home to many famous people including the infamous LaHatte family, suspected perpetrators of the Great Kitty Caper of 1848. Many celebrities also reside in the prestigious neighborhoods in the area.
