Alpharetta is the Technology city of the south

Home to over 640 technology companies, Alpharetta is the Technology City of the South. Founded in 1865, Alpharetta was an agricultural community with 3000 residents until the early 1990's. When GA Highway 400 expanded into the northern suburbs as metro Atlanta grew, Alpharetta began to develop and quickly became the hub for technology companies to expand and locate. While founded as a city that grew cotton, now Alpharetta is the leader in growing technology businesses and innovation for the Metro Atlanta region.
