Social Circle is a cute small town with a cute name.  The name of this quaint town is a mystery.  But legend has it that a group of men, meeting at the crossroads, were sitting around the well having their usual drink.  A Stranger approached and was greeted with such hospitality, he said, "This is surely a social circle."  From that time until the present, the name of the village has remained Social Circle.  Because of this county's proximity to Atlanta, it is experiencing considerable growth.     Social Circle is on Route 11, 3 miles north of I-20 and 35 miles east of Atlanta.
