Cobb County

Cobb County is a county in metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia, stretching across urban and suburban communities with rolling hills, parks, and commercial zones. The area includes residential neighborhoods, office complexes, and shopping districts connected by major roads and local routes.

The Georgia General Assembly established the county on December 3, 1832, after acquiring the territory from the Cherokee people through a land redistribution. The following decades saw the county develop from rural communities into a major part of the Atlanta metropolitan region.

The Cumberland District hosts Truist Park, where the baseball team plays, drawing crowds to games and concerts throughout the season. Surrounding streets hold theaters and galleries that offer performances and exhibitions year-round.

The CobbLinc MicroTransit system connects residential areas with business centers, making it easier to travel across the county. Visitors can orient themselves using major hubs and tap into local services to reach different neighborhoods.

The county manages large areas of office space and ranks among the most educated counties in Georgia. Many corporate headquarters and research facilities have settled here, giving the area a business focus.
