Brookhaven is a city located in DeKalb County, in the U.S. state of Georgia. It is currently home to a population of over 51,000 residents as of the most recent U.S. census estimates, making it the largest city in DeKalb County (though it is not the county seat). Settlement of the Brookhaven area dates back to the 1810’s, though it remained a relatively small and isolated area until the turn of the 20th century and the discovery of land outside of burgeoning Atlanta. It became an area of relaxation for Atlanta’s richer residents, though by the 1960’s the city’s population began to skyrocket due to urban flight and suburbanization thanks to the construction of highways that provided access to areas outside of Atlanta. Brookhaven was incorporated as DeKalb County’s eleventh city in 2012, which also makes it one of the county’s youngest cities.
