Senoia was once a sleepy hamlet in Coweta County, Georgia, about 40 miles from Atlanta. But over the last couple of years, it morphed into a lively little community, thanks in no small part to its role as a primary filming location for “The Walking Dead.” Fans of the show flocked to the town, helping revitalize its Main Street as newly built subdivisions attracted new residents. Today, the area balances its small-town roots with a strong real estate market, a vibrant downtown and highly rated schools.
Historic Downtown Senoia includes City Hall and locally owned restaurants along Main Street.

Mix of historic homes and new builds in fresh subdivisions
Downtown Senoia has a mix of homes, from turn-of-the-20th-century Victorians to traditional ranch-style houses and newer builds. “There’s new construction in downtown,” says Cindy Horsley, a Realtor with Bush Real Estate and a lifelong resident of the area. “They’ve torn down some of the old houses there and built new on those lots. But for the most part, the older houses are in good condition.” Prices range from $300,000 to the mid-$600,000s for smaller, newer homes and from $900,000 to more than $2 million for larger homes.
There are also a handful of recently developed subdivisions around downtown, featuring New Traditional homes. These go from around $400,000 to the mid-$700,000s. Long driveways branch off the country roads farther from the center of town. These homes can range from $300,000 to $800,000, often depending on the size of the property. “If you get outside of the downtown area, you go into more of a rural kind of area where you’ve got acreage,” Horsley says.

"The Walking Dead" helped transform the town
A handful of films and TV shows have been shot in Senoia, but it was “The Walking Dead” that made the greatest impact. The spotlight boosted tourism and, in turn, helped contribute to the city’s growth. “It’s completely a different place,” Horsley says. “There’s more people living there, but it generated a lot of revenue for the area.” The series officially wrapped in 2022, but there are still plenty of souvenir shops and walking tours themed to the show.
Local restaurants dot Main Street, plus a new Publix shopping center
One byproduct of the increased attention on Senoia is its thriving Main Street, which has plenty of local restaurants and shops. Horsley points out Nic & Norman’s, owned by “Walking Dead” executive producer and director Greg Nicotero and actor Norman Reedus, as a standout spot downtown. Other popular eateries include:
Maguire’s, a family-friendly Irish pub
Matt’s Smalltown Pizza, featuring dine-in and delivery pizzas
Borgo Italia, featuring authentic Italian cuisine
There are also a couple of boutiques and markets, as well as the city’s farmers market, which is open every Sunday from April to December. Just down the road, a Publix supermarket opened in 2022, alongside fast food options like Chick-fil-A and McDonald’s.
Downtown Senoia reflects a Southern small-town feel shaped by local shops and visitors.

Students can attend highly rated Coweta County schools
The Coweta County School System serves Senoia. Most kids in the system are zoned to highly rated schools, including Eastside Elementary School, East Coweta Middle School and East Coweta High School. East Coweta High offers over 20 Advanced Placement courses. Private options are located in nearby Peachtree City, including the highly rated Foundry Academy for sixth through 12th grades.
Eastside Elementary School serves families in Senoia as part of Coweta County Schools.

Residents can commute toward Atlanta for work
Senoia’s an exurb of Atlanta, which is about 40 miles away. Many residents commute to the city for work. The traffic in the Atlanta area is notorious — it usually takes from 45 minutes to an hour and a half to get to Downtown Atlanta on the morning drive. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, another job hub, is closer to 30 miles away. Georgia Highway 85 cuts through Senoia and is the city’s main route, but most folks heading to Atlanta cut through Peachtree City to meet up with Interstate 85. Most people drive, though Coweta County runs an on-demand transit service for people who need a lift.
Renovated Park of Hope and Marimac Lake are standout parks
There are a few parks in town, including the Park of Hope. Located on Coweta Street, the park was renovated by the Coweta Street Park Foundation and reopened in 2025 with a new playground and resurfaced basketball court. Seavy Street Park has a shaded playground, while Marimac Lake has catch-and-release fishing and walking paths on the other side of town. “It’s a place you could just go to hang out there all day,” Horsley says of the lake. Leroy Johnson Park has baseball and softball fields for youth sports.
