About this map

Palmetto serves as a primary hub in the south of Fulton County, situated just north of the border shared with Coweta County. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of the Chattahoochee River, with several significant creeks such as Pea Cr, Bear Cr, and Little Pea Cr carving through the terrain. To the north, the footprint of Union City extends into the map, showing a transition toward more concentrated development.

Smaller, established communities like Rivertown, Goodes, and the curiously named Cackle Corner are scattered throughout the region, often centered around long-standing road networks like Rivertown Rd and Hutcheson Ferry Rd. Genealogists and local historians will note the location of Cochran Cem and landmarks such as the South Fulton Airport. This era reflects a period of modern growth in the Chattahoochee Hills area, where newer residential developments like Carlton Woods and Bear Creek Estates are seen alongside traditional family-named landmarks and rural outposts.
