About Atlanta: Your Gateway to the Heart of Atlanta

Our Story

Atlanta, founded in 2017, is more than just a news website; it's a digital home for Atlantans and those captivated by this vibrant city. We were born out of a vision to bridge the gap between residents and the dynamic spirit of Atlanta, offering a platform to celebrate its past, present, and future. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to create a one-stop source for accurate, unbiased, and engaging news that reflects the diverse tapestry of our city.

Milestones and Achievements

Over the years, we've achieved several milestones:

  • In 2018, Atlanta launched its first annual 'Atlanta's Top 50' list, highlighting the city's hidden gems and must-visit spots as curated by local experts.
  • By 2019, our dedicated team had expanded, enabling us to cover a wider range of topics, from in-depth political analysis to heartwarming community stories.
  • In 2020, we introduced an interactive map showcasing Atlanta's rich history, becoming a go-to resource for both locals and tourists seeking a deeper understanding of the city.
  • As we celebrated our 5th anniversary in 2022, Atlanta had become a trusted name among Atlantans, fostering a sense of community and civic engagement through our platform.

Atlanta is driven by a profound purpose: to empower and connect the Atlanta community through authentic storytelling. We believe that news has the power to shape perceptions, inspire change, and bring people together. Our core values are rooted in:
