About Alpharetta, Georgia.

The city of Alpharetta, Georgia is a large community of over 50,000 residents. The city’s origins lie in a small settlement called the New Prospect Camp Ground around the mid 1800s. The town of Alpharetta was officially established in 1858. The late 1800s brought a period rife with turmoil to the town as small pox and the Civil War deeply affected development in Alpharetta. Unlike many other U.S. cities, Alpharetta’s continued growth hinged on agriculture rather than the presence of heavy industry. Thanks to Alpharetta’s warm climate and fertile grounds, Alpharetta’s agricultural industry stayed fairly consistent. Today, Alpharetta is a rapidly growing community. However, homes in Alpharetta and the surrounding community retain the small town charm that makes Alpharetta an ideal family location.
