Welcome to Chattahoochee Hill Country
“Way down yonder on the Chattahoochee It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie We laid rubber on the georgie asphalt We got a little crazy but we never got caught”… Alan Jackson, Chattahoochee
The Chattahoochee Hill Country is an area of approximately 60,000 acres located southwest of Atlanta, bordered on the northwest side by the Chattahoochee River. Unlike the rest of metro Atlanta, it is still relatively undeveloped, and most of its almost-rural character remains unspoiled.
The majority of the area comprises the west-southwest part of southern Fulton, and smaller adjacent parts of southern Douglas, eastern Carroll, and northern Coweta counties.
During the 2006 session, the Georgia General Assembly passed a law allowing the Fulton section of the area to incorporate as a "city" (the only type of municipality allowed in Georgia), the only purpose being the complete municipalization of that county. On June 19, 2007, residents voted by an 83% to 17% margin to incorporate the 33,000 acre portion within Fulton as the city of Chattahoochee Hill Country, Georgia in a local referendum. Later annexation could incorporate the portions remaining in other counties.
