Unincorporated College Park
The area south and east of the city limits is known as Unincorporated College Park, or "Unincorporated," as it is referred to by its residents. Originally a rural area known for its farms, woodlands, and wildlife, it is quickly making the transition to heavily populated suburb. An incredible amount of development has hit the area in recent years, transforming it tremendously. A 2007 vote denied the creation of a new city for this area of South Fulton County, which was to be named South Fulton, Georgia. The nearby cities of College Park, Union City, and East Point have all expressed interest in annexing the area. According to the vote, the residents appear to stand against this though, preferring the loose reigns of county government to the higher taxes and more stringent guidelines that come with city government. Or possibly, voters did not approve of the name itself, which was not chosen by consensus. Unincorporated College Park is serviced by the recreation centers at Burdett Park and Welcome All Park. The pre-Civil War city of Red Oak was located in a western part of Unincorporated. After the Civil War, it was never rebuilt.
