Cartersville and Bartow County
In Cartersville, the courthouse clock tower has kept time for nearly a hundred years. If you’ve grown up in Bartow County, you recognize it like an old friend. Its striking profile draws your attention as you exit I-75 onto Main Street. Sandra understands why people appreciate living in Bartow County. Rich with small-town history, it seems a world away from pressure and pace of Atlanta, yet it’s just a 45-minute drive into the city. When Atlanta is wound up, towns like Cartersville offer hard-working commuters a chance to wind down.
Time moves a little more slowly in this picturesque corner of Georgia—it’s part of what keeps Sandra Howell here; she appreciates a little peace of mind, a less hectic lifestyle.
It’s a different life style, perhaps a better one. Here a minute of conversation turns strangers into acquaintances. When shopkeepers and bank tellers say “How are you?” they really want to know the answer. You’ll be glad youtook the time to get to know Bartow County.
“Bartow County is a self-sufficient, independent community not too far away from a large metro area to enjoy its assets but far enough to experience an excellent quality of life with wonderful people. I have always been proud to call Bartow County home.”
Joe Frank Harris, Former Governor of Georgia
