I MAKES NEWS 1
■ Many New Additions to Towns 1
| Exceeding 1,000 Population 1
|||l Many important gains, striking gains, in popu-
W§ lation among the 562 communities served by pig
111 the Georgia Power Company are shown by Mg
111 the United States Census for 1940. Vi
|||| With a new population figure of 10,243, |J||
Gainesville joins the group of largest commu
nities served by the Company those having
M more than 10,000 people. Its increase over the jJ|
M 1930 population of 8,624 was 19 per cent. There W
J are eight other cities in this class, to which the I B
||| Georgia Power Company supplies electric serv-
I# ice. They are: Atlanta, Augusta, Macon, Colum- y||
Wf bus, Rome, Athens, Brunswick and Decatur. Mm
| Jn the next group, cities of 5,000 to 10,000 in- 1m
WL habitants, there are four newcomers: the lively, i||
HI expanding cities of Hapevillc, Statesboro, Tifton |i
|| and Toccoa. They take their place with five M
|||i other progressive towns served by the Georgia
H Power Company: Americus, Carrollton, Cedar- J|
W town, Dublin and Millcdgcville. Np
W Nineteen smaller towns, helped by favorable f||
j business and agricultural conditions, climbed up J|
M into the third group of communities, haying be- ||||
9 tween 1,000 and 5,000 people. These 19 were M
m Aragon, Austell, Brookhaven, Butler, Chamblee, ij|
M Chatsworth, Clayton, Crawfordville, Dahlonega, W,
m Darien, Ellijay, Graymonl-Summitt, Hardwick, M
m Helena, Oglethorpe, Pembroke, Scottdale, Shan-
HI non and Summerville. All told, there are 94 Jg
B| And the total of all towns of over 1,000 popu- lii
jM ] a iion served by the Georgia Power Company |j|
m W Which leaves 450 communities of less than ||
J 1,000 population. W
H In other words, only 20 per ce “ l ° a , il
B towns we serve have as many as I’oo^PeoPle» 1 ’ 00^P eo P le » ||
|| while 80 per cent have fewer than 1,000. 11

M ulntion of 6; Gaillard, which has 9; and Double ||
