Hi, Laura,My understanding is that hoseus on the east side of Clifton are considered Lake Claire, but I think a resident of the street gets benefits of both LC and Candler Park (i.e., both sides should get the Lake Claire Clarion and the Candler Park Messenger delivered to them). Hope this helps!Heidi
