Arnold Mill and the banks of the Little River anchor this 2011 survey of the northern reaches of the Atlanta suburbs. The landscape is a dense network of suburban residential developments and private lakes, each managed by numerous water control structures such as the Tharp Lake Dam and Fulton Dam. Local history is preserved in several small family and community burial grounds, including the Mabry Cemetery, Kemp Cemetery, and Hardman Cemetery. Higher elevations like Sweat Mountain provide prominent landmarks, home to the Sweat Mountain Lookout Tower. The transition from rural roots to contemporary residential patterns is evident in the survival of names like Hunters Mill and Nowlin Hall alongside modern neighborhoods and recreation sites such as the Brookfield West Golf Course. Small-scale aviation is represented by Air Acres Airport, situated near the winding course of the river.
