Alpharetta is located in metropolitan Atlanta, approximately twenty-five miles north of the city in the foothills of the north Georgia mountains. The Alpharetta area was first part of Cherokee County and then, for almost seventy-five years, part of Milton County, which in turn became part of Fulton County in the early 1930s. More @Wikipedia
