What is the history of Union City?

Formed in the early 1900s, Union City was primarily known as a farming community, with the city's first restaurant and other establishments coming into fruition around 1910. The city had electricity by 1920, and a number of new schools were added to the city limits throughout the 1940s and 50s. The construction of the South Fulton Municipal Regional Jail in 1990 provided a boost to employment in the region, and currently the city is in the midst of a revitalization of the downtown scene.

The Atlanta Airport is a short drive away, with numerous domestic and international flights offered daily, and both taxis and ride sharing businesses can be found with ease in the city. 

What is the Union City commute like?

Those commuting to Atlanta can expect some delays on the daily, especially during the late morning, early afternoon peak hours. Interstates 85 and 285 act as the major roadways in and around the city, with Broad Street and local route 138 criss-crossing the center of the city.

What are the local media outlets?

Most print news comes from the Atlanta metro region, including popular outlets such as the 'Daily Report' and the 'Journal-Constitution'.
