Johns Creek

Johns Creek has received national recognition for being one of the best cities to live in–and it’s no surprise why. With 82,000 residents, John’s Creek is the safest large city in Georgia and home to some of the best schools in the state.

Quick History

The area constituting Johns Creek originally belonged to the Cherokee nation. In the early 1800s, European settlers colonized the area and set up trading posts for pioneer families to meet and exchange goods. The first mention of Johns Creek as a place wouldn’t occur until the late 20th century when a group of Georgia Institute of Technology graduates purchased land for an office park. The city of Johns Creek was not officially established until December 1, 2006.
