Ninth Fastest Growing County In the Nation Paulding County, Georgia Seat: Dallas Paulding County enjoyed incredible growth during the first few years of the twenty first century. According to the U.S. Census Bureau estimates Paulding County is the ninth fastest growing county in America based on percent of growth between January 2000 and July 2006 for all counties that began the century with more than ten thousand inhabitants. The county has been home to many notable individuals in recent years, including country music stars Travis Tritt and Patty Loveless as well as record producer Emory Gordy Jr. and Ray Traylor, former World Wrestling Federation superstar. It is a part of the Atlanta metropolitan area which includes Atlanta, Sandy Springs and Marietta. Paulding County which was established in 1832, had already grown in population to 81,608 by the year 2000. But in the six years that marked the beginning of the 21 Century, the county increased the number of inhabitants by 48.9 percent bringing the estimated total population in July 2006 to 121,530. The astounding growth of the last six years has made Paulding County the third fastest growing county in the Peach State of Georgia and the ninth fastest in the nation. Although no figures are available to determine how the growth may have affected the price of homes in the area, in the year 2000 the median cost for a home within the 314 square mile jurisdiction was $106,100.
