About this map

Acworth sits at the nexus of several North Georgia counties on this 1992 survey, positioned where the waters of Allatoona Lake and Lake Acworth meet. The map reveals a landscape defined by significant infrastructure and growing suburban density, with the CSX Transportation rail line and Cobb Parkway serving as primary transit corridors. Educational and religious institutions are particularly dense here, including North Cobb High School and Awtrey Middle School, alongside older local landmarks like Liberty Hill Cemetery and Mars Hill Cemetery.

Public recreation dominates the shorelines, with numerous designated zones such as the Allatoona Proctor Public Use Area and Tanyard Creek Public Use Area providing access to the expansive reservoir. The geography is further marked by several small creek systems, including Butler Creek and Proctor Creek, which drain into the lake's many coves. This edition documents the region just before the rapid expansion of the late 20th century, capturing the established boundaries of Payne, Mars Hill, and Allatoona.
