Forest Hills unfolds across a landscape of rolling hills, where the Georgia sun, especially in the late afternoon, casts long, burnished shadows across the undulating terrain. It lies 1.2 miles south-south-west of Lawrenceville, GA (from Lawrenceville, GA: bearing 193°T), and is situated 9.8 miles east-south-east of Duluth.

Small streams, their waters cool and clear, meander through wooded ravines, their gentle murmur a constant, soothing presence.

The character of Forest Hills is shaped by its roots as a place where agriculture once dominated, its fertile soil yielding crops that sustained early settlers.
