Happy New Year,
Johns Creek!
Thanks for a great 2016 and we're looking forward to an exceptional 2017.
As we look back on 2016, which was arguably one of the most notable in our young 10-year history, the City of Johns Creek received many impressive accolades, including being named the Safest City in Georgia (ValuePenguin) and Best City in Georgia to Raise a Family (WalletHub). We have the third Hardest Working City in Georgia (Zippia) and the Newtown Dream Dog Park ranks third in the nation (USA Today). And, the high schools within the city continuously rank at the top of statewide and national lists.
We invite you to take a look at what makes Johns Creek an exceptional City and some of the attributes that make us a premiere place to
live, work, and play!
