Athens-Clarke County enjoys a
reputation as "the most enlightened city in Georgia"
according to the Utne Reader. The city was founded in
1801 along with the commencement of classes at the
University of Georgia, the nation's oldest
state-chartered university. Athens-Clarke County
embodies a wealth of history, architectural heritage,
education, culture, and industry. There is a sense of
hometown community which comes from these elements.
