BUFORD

Welcome to Buford—a city alive with history and culture! Get acquainted with Buford’s charming streets in its historic downtown district complete with restaurants, shops and galleries. Enjoy a freshly brewed cup of coffee, a glass of wine or a full-course meal before a casual stroll along Main Street. Then, get your entertainment fix at the Buford Community Center, right across the street at the charming Sylvia Beard Theatre or the Mall of Georgia, home to the biggest names in shopping and a world-class movie theater. Greater Buford also offers major-league excitement in its backyard as a neighbor to the Gwinnett Stripers, a Triple-A Affiliate of the Atlanta Braves.

But, the family-centric community Buford has become is primarily due to one thing: the award-winning Buford City School System. The shining star of the community is a result of a longstanding commitment to education which began before the City’s founding in 1872. Since becoming an independent school district in 1912, Buford has remained a pillar of educational excellence in Georgia.
