A City Unto Itself
The Atlanta Airport Area is located south of I-20 and surrounds Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (H-JAIA), the world’s busiest airport. It extends from Stockbridge at the southeast to Newnan at the southwest. World-class accommodations, shops, restaurants and entertainment are available to visitors and residents alike.
Access by car is simple, with Interstates I-85 and I-75 serving traffic traveling north and south. I-20 connects us to points east and west, and the I-285 bypass circles the south side of the airport as it loops around Atlanta.
