Stone Mountain is in Dekalb County, Georgia and is nearly considered a district of Atlanta. The town is named for Stone Mountain, the largest exposed granite dome in North America. The town was incorporated in 1839 and has a population of approximately 7,000 people. The Stone Mountain Industrial Park is a large employer in the area. Stone Mountain retains its small town feel despite being so close to one of the biggest cities in the Southern United States. There is a concerted effort to revitalize and grow the downtown area, tapping in on the legions of tourists at the nearby Stone Mountain Park.

Stone Mountain, the city, is due East of Atlanta on Stone Mountain Parkway, which is just north of Interstate 20.
