What is Mableton?

Mableton is a town, not a city. So you only pay county taxes in about 95% of the 30126 zip code. Mableton was discovered by Robert Mable, long, long ago and was actually Cobb County first city. Not long after, Mableton was given back to the county where it has stayed since then, thank goodness. (Who wants to pay those crazy city taxes?)

What Mableton is today!

Mableton used to be known as Smyrna and Vinings’s little cousin – a red headed step child of sorts because of it former life as a major truck route dotted with art frame shops, used car lots, and ticky-tacky mom-n-pop stores with only a Kmart as its major retail store.  Some would have called it a low grade compost pile with trimmings and leftovers from East Cobb and West Cobb. But as with any compost pile in your garden, Mableton has sprung up with a string of healthy great shoots that the affluent have seem to notice early on and bought in early to watch their investments grow over the past 8 years.  Now Mableton is dotted with million dollar homes, lined with popular retail stores like Target, Wal-Mart, Lowes, Home Depot, Publix, Kroger and tons of restaurants like Red Lobsters, Chili’s, Bay Breeze and many others around its edges.
