Carlton, GA

united states

Carlton is a tiny rural community in northeast Georgia, about 90 miles from Atlanta via I-85 and Highway 98. With under 250 residents, it sits in peaceful Madison County farmland where rolling hills meet the Appalachian foothills. Most visitors drive through Commerce on I-85, then take Highway 98 east through the countryside. The town's most notable feature is its location along a historic railroad corridor, with remnants of the old rail bed still visible cutting through surrounding farms.
