Fayette County, Administrative division in Georgia, United States.
Fayette County spans across multiple municipalities, including Fayetteville, Peachtree City, and Tyrone, with residential neighborhoods and commercial districts throughout the region.
The county, established in 1821, received its name from the Marquis de Lafayette, a French military officer who aided the Continental Army during the American Revolution.
