The City of Calhoun is the county seat of Gordon County, Georgia. Sometime in the late 1840's, Dawsonville was the name of the settlement along the Western and Atlantic Railroad in Gordon County which is today known as the City of Calhoun. Renamed for former U. S. Senator John C. Calhoun in 1850, the city was chosen as the county seat by an election held in Gordon County in 1851. The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Calhoun as a city on January 12, 1852. Advantageously located on both sides of Interstate 75, Calhoun has a lot to offer residents and visitors alike. Calhoun sits between Chattanooga, TN and Atlanta, GA on Interstate 75, US Highway 41 runs directly through downtown and intersects with Highway 53 running east and west. This combination of major highways quickly connects Calhoun to several key cities in the southeastern United States. With such easy transportation access, Calhoun has become the home of many diverse companies, from flooring to heavy equipment machinery manufacturing.
