About location

East Point sits on Georgia’s rolling Piedmont in the United States, where State Route 166 meets U.S. Route 29 on Atlanta’s southwest side. The city takes its name from the eastern terminus of the Atlanta and West Point Railroad, an origin that explains its longstanding ties to regional transportation. Adjacent to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, it forms part of Fulton County’s closely connected southern metropolitan corridor. Established neighborhoods and commercial strips spread around major roads, while rail lines and Atlanta’s wider street network link East Point with the state capital’s urban core. Its position southeast of downtown Atlanta gives it a distinctly urban, transport-focused character.

City East Point

East Point has served as a railroad town in Georgia’s Piedmont since the 1870s, when the Atlanta and West Point Railroad helped shape its growth south of Atlanta. Set between central Atlanta and Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport, it remains a separate Fulton County city with its own compact downtown. The historic commercial district follows the rail corridor, preserving the logic of the original settlement. Dick Lane Velodrome, a banked outdoor cycling track, gives East Point a particular role in the region’s sporting life. Trace East Point’s place in metropolitan Atlanta by browsing webcams nearby.

Georgia
Region Georgia

The terrain of Georgia ranges from the Blue Ridge Mountains in the north to the low, sandy Atlantic Coastal Plain in the south and east, creating a state of sharply varied landscapes. The Chattahoochee River follows much of the Alabama border, while the Savannah River forms much of the boundary with South Carolina before reaching the Atlantic. Atlanta is closely linked to the US civil rights movement and includes the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Park. On the coast, barrier islands and salt marshes frame Savannah, whose historic district is recognised for its network of public squares.

Country United States

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
