Carroll County, Georgia

How about we talk about Carroll County? It’s a decent-sized chunk of west Georgia, right on the Alabama line. Carrollton is the county seat, a college town that’s home to the University of West Georgia. The county is named after Charles Carroll, the last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence.

You’ve got a mix of rural and suburban here. Farms still are across the landscape, but Atlanta’s sprawl is creeping in. Lake Carroll is a popular spot for fishing and boating. The Little Tallapoosa River winds through, adding to the scenery.

Carroll County has a bit of everything. You’ve got your college crowd in Carrollton, your farmers out in the county, and your commuters heading to Atlanta. It’s not quite city, not quite county. Folks here like their football, their barbecue, and their quiet life. But not necessarily in that order.
