About Newton County

Many towns actively seek to achieve a lifestyle we’ve enjoyed for generations: a friendly town with its own personality and pace conveniently located to the assets of Atlanta. To them, we say good luck with your quest. Many visitors enjoy our tree lined streets with antebellum homes within walking distance to our historic and picturesque town square. Summertime converts and holiday carriage rides bring memories for some and first time delight for those who always wanted to experience a wonderful lifestyle like ours. For others the sophistication that is the result of having 5 college campuses nearby, new urbanism communities, loft living and nationally recognized recreational facilities make it a special place.
