Located at the center of the Atlanta-
Birmingham- Chattanooga Triangle, lies one of America's best
cities - Rome, Georgia!
Known as the "Capital of Northwest Georgia," we invite you to
discover for yourself why Rome was recently named the #1 Most
Livable City in the Southeast and the #1 Small City with the Best
Health Care in the United States.
Floyd County, one of the 50 wealthiest non-metro cities in the
United States, is the economic hub and medical center of all of
Northwest Georgia. Its renowned healthcare facilities are home to
more physicians per capita than any city in Georgia.

More than 150 diverse manufacturers and some of America's fastest growing high-tech and diverse industries provide Rome and Floyd County with a wide range of job opportunities.
Ranked 15th in economic strength among all of Georgia's counties, Floyd County enjoys
a billion dollar retail sales economy and is recognized as the
commercial center of Northwest Georgia. Undoubtedly, Rome will
remain Northwest Georgia's economic leader well into the 21st
century.
Excellent educational institutions are found throughout Floyd
County. Three colleges (one among the top ten in America), a
vocational-technical institute, award-winning public schools, and
perhaps the finest and most beautiful public library in our state,
meet the high standards of a diverse community.
Quality recreational and cultural opportunities abound. Rome is
the 9th ranked tennis city in the United States and our highly
acclaimed public golf course and other recreational amenities,
including walking and biking trails, address all the needs of the
sports enthusiast. The South's oldest symphony, college and local
theatres, arts festivals, and several museums add to the rich
quality of life that provides families with unique experiences in
which they may share and further enrich their lives.
You will come to appreciate Rome's exceptional lifestyle when you
stroll the downtown historic "between the rivers" district, visit
the world's largest campus at Berry College, learn of Rome's
Cherokee heritage at Chieftains Museum, or explore the three
rivers that are surrounded by the beautiful hills of Floyd County.
Rome is a perfect place for close family ties, long-lasting
friendships, and a lifestyle about which many only dream. For more
