Where are you located? Atlanta, Georgia
Tell us an unknown fact about where you are based: Atlanta is home to 71 streets with a variation of the word “Peachtree” in their names: Peachtree Avenue, Peachtree Plaza, and so on.

The name “peachtree” evolved from “pitch tree,” which is what the native pine trees were called because of their sticky sap.
