History
During the American Civil War, Decatur became a strategic site in William Tecumseh Sherman campaign against Atlanta. This town would later become known as Atlanta, Georgia. :'For the south-western Georgia county, see Decatur County, Georgia.'
In 1823 Decatur, Georgia was founded at the intersection of two Native American trails: the Sandtown which led east from the Chattahoochee River at Utoy Creek and the Shallowford which follows today's Clairmont Road and eventually crossed near Roswell, Georgia. The 1960s and 1970s witnessed dramatic drops in property values. Concurrently many well-to-do and middle class White Americans white flight the area to more distant suburbs.
