Yeah, I'm doing research again. The character I'm creating is the from a family that founded one of the oldest black banks in the country, so we're talking multi-generational wealth here. I'm vacillating between locating the story here or in Birmingham, haven't decided yet, but where does old black money live in the Atlanta area?

Multi-generational (ie pre Civil Rights) we would be talking Sweet Auburn, right?

edit: To clarify, I think it was historically centered on Auburn (ie that's where the wealthy ancestors would have made their $$$), but currently would be based in Cascade (where their descendants would probably live now).
