About Chamblee, GA
Chamblee has always been a city of continuing transformation. From bucolic dairy land, to Southern railroad junction. From temporary home to 40,000 WWI "doughboys" to 1950's industrial complex. And now, it is a true international city in Georgia, with one of the most ethnically diverse populations of any municipality in the Southeast. And, we did all this in just 90 years.
In Chamblee, our motto is "A City On the Right Track." However, we also recognize the wisdom of the Will Rogers quote, "Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there." The dynamic, ever-changing history of Chamblee sets a high standard for progress as we move into the next century. That's exciting for both residents and visitors alike. Come and see for yourself why we're so proud of our community.
