Alto Georgia
“Lula City or Long View”
Town of Alto GA
The town of Alto is a rural town in the Northeast Georgia Blue Ridge mountains, located in Habersham County. Founded in 1877, Alto (previously known as “Lulah City” and “Long View”) was incorporated on December 16, 1895. The community straddles Habersham and Banks counties. The community name derives from the Italian term for “high,” for its elevation.
