A Great Place To Live
Looking for that old hometown rustic charm, but still want the modern conveniences?
If so, you will be impressed with what the new city of Milton has to offer!
On December 1, 2006, Milton, located in North Fulton County, became one of Georgia’s
newest cities. Atlanta is consistently ranked one of the top cities in the U.S. today,
and Milton is one of the hottest markets in Atlanta for residential real estate with an
equestrian flair. In addition to the equestrian industry, Milton is home to over seven
of Metro Atlanta’s top golf courses, including the award winning White Columns and
Capital City Club at Crabapple. Excellent schools, shopping, and access to jobs
combined with plenty of green space and big skies have made Milton the premiere
location to live in the metro area today.
Crabapple, Georgia
Centered today at the crossroads of Georgia Highways 140 and 372 (also known as "the
Silos area"), Crabapple, Georgia, is one of the oldest parts of Fulton County,
Georgia.
Originally part of Cherokee County, Georgia, (founded 1830), Crabapple was part
of the land contributed in 1857 to form Milton County, Georgia. As a result of the
Great Depression, Milton County was later absorbed into Fulton County in 1932. The
historic heart of Crabapple is anchored by an historic brick building at the crossroads
of Crabapple Road-Mayfield Road, Birmingham Road-Broadwell Road, and Mid-Broadwell
Road
