Atlanta Annexations - Annexations Since 1952

Annexations Since 1952

Since 1952, multiple small annexations (and deannexations) to the City of Atlanta have occurred, in two periods from 1953-1979 and 2003-2010. No annexations took place from 1979 to 2003.

Multiple small areas adjacent to southwestern Atlanta were annexed including Midwest Cascade, Cascade Glen, and the Horseshoe Community. Sandtown's 2007 petition for annexation was put on hold.

These annexations added a few thousand residents, and approximately three square miles, including areas mostly in the southwest of the city, but also small parcels in the east and north of the city.
