Senoia is a city in Coweta County, Georgia, and is part of the Atlanta metropolitan area.

Situated just 35 minutes from Atlanta, the city is bordered by Peachtree City to the north.

The first recorded settlement in the area happened in 1860 when Rev. Francis Warren Baggarly led a Methodist Episcopal church there.

When residents from the nearby Willow Dell community arrived in 1864, the settlement was already named Senoia.

The name’s origin is difficult to determine, but a popular theory says it came from the name of  Captain William McIntosh’s wife, Senoya He-ne-ha.

Another suggests that the name came from “Shenoywa,” a Native American title for McIntosh.

Today, the city has gained immense popularity thanks to the TV series The Walking Dead, which used it as a filming location.
