Vickery is a 214-acre (86.6-hectare), mixed-use neighborhood under development in Cumming, Georgia, 30 miles (48.3 kilometers) north of Atlanta. A high-density village center containing a mix of civic and commercial uses as well as townhouses and live/work units is surrounded by small-lot, single-family housing. Planned as an alternative to the low-density development occurring elsewhere in this suburban area, Vickery is designed to provide a diversity of housing choices and community amenities—and thus create a multigenerational and demographically diverse neighborhood.
