Social Circle is a city in Walton County, extending into Newton County, in the U.S. state of Georgia, approximately 40 miles east of Atlanta, off Interstate 20. The historic downtown area is run as a row of turn-of-the-century brick buildings occupied mostly by antiques, furniture, gift shops, and local restaurants. The population was 4,500 according to 2009 United States Census data. The city was named circa 1826, and incorporated in 1832. The etymology of the name is unknown, but similar to its namesake, the municipality's border (like that
of many small Southern towns), is partially circular. The City of Social Circle lies along an antiques trail route, with southeastern-touring commercial passenger motorcoaches often passing through the downtown area by way of Georgia State Route 11. While most of the residents are occupied in such sectors as administration, retail and other establishment, the city's multiple industry and rail are constant and familar presences on the east-side.
