Fulton County, Georgia - City Websites


Alpharetta: Alpharetta and Milton County can trace their history to the time of the resettlement of the Cherokee Indian Nation in the 1830’s. Pioneers were soon followed by permanent farmers and merchants and when the depression of the early 1930’s devastated the nation’s economy, Milton County found itself near bankruptcy. In order to save the area from disaster, it was decided that a merger of Milton County with Fulton County would be to everyone’s advantage. It was because of this merger that the first roads began to be paved. Until that time, the only paved roads in the area were State Highway 19 (now Highway 9) and 120 (now Old Milton Parkway). In stark contrast to its early days today, Alpharetta is one of the fastest growing communities in the South.  Its environment is considered ideal for raising families and living a quality lifestyle free from the problems found in so many similar sized cities.  Read more
