====Toco Hills====
Toco Hills is a large commercial and residential neighborhood in the eastern portion of the North Druid Hills CDP. The commercial component consists of two major shopping centers that are located at the intersection of LaVista and North Druid Hills roads that were developed in the 1950s. While it is generally accepted that the name "Toco Hills" is derived from the Toco Hill shopping center, the origin of that name is disputed. Some sources claim that the developer chose the name Toco because it was the Brazilian Indian word for "good luck."<ref name="neighborhoods.ajchomefinder.com">[http://neighborhoods.ajchomefinder.com/DeKalb/Toco%20Hills/30329?id=1Oficanthon] {{dead link|date=July 2018}}</ref> Other sources claim Toco is an informal abbreviation of "top of the County."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.city-data.com/neighborhood/Briarcliff-Atlanta-GA.html|title=Briarcliff neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia (GA), 30329, 30345 subdivision profile - real estate, apartments, condos, homes, community, population, jobs, income, streets|website=City-data.com}}</ref><ref>[http://www.atlantatimemachine.com/commercialbldgs/toco.htmOficanthon] {{dead link|date=July 2018}}</ref> In any case, the shopping center was developed on what was a hill, and the name gradually changed to "Toco Hills." The area is home to a large [[Orthodox Jewish]] population, and marked by wooded subdivisions featuring mostly ranch homes surrounding the commercial area.<ref name="neighborhoods.ajchomefinder.com"/>
