Pretty sure SS was previously unincorporated.
Correct (I used to live there).

Baton Rouge is against white people governing their selves. The black mayor and the black leadership like to keep the whites within their control like they own them. It’s disgusting. The racist mayor and racist chief of police don’t even care about all the black on black crime.

Alpharetta spawned Johns Creek and Milton. There are a bunch of examples in the area in just the past decade or so.
Neither was part of Alpharetta (like Sandy Springs, both were unincorporated).

This is probably gonna start happening more in Democratic run cities. The money neighborhoods are tired of the idiot Mayors not giving a damn or doing anything about crime. So the best option for the money is to keep all their revenue and taxes in their area and pull it from said Democratic idiots.
Hell, it’s even been attempted in Shreveport. Ellerbe wanted to become its own town because the Shreveport Mayor and City Council are idiots.
I’d love for it to happen. Shitty arse and ran city losing the majority of its tax base is what it deserves.

One of the most disingenuous pieces of reporting (more like one sided hit piece) FrontLine ever did was on St. George.
Anyone framing this as a "split" from Baton Rouge is being disingenuous. St. George is not part of Baton Rouge. Never was.
Buckhead is another story entirely. It's part of Atlanta. That would be like Hundred Oaks and Mid City just deciding to be their own town one day.

SS was unicroprsted for a long time...Dunwoody is what you’re looking for.
And one of the dozens of examples the balanced, unbiased reporting over at frontline somehow missed the existence of.

I'm worried that America's cities are about to have a really bad decade of crime, decay, and sprawl.
All of the improvements made in the past 20-30 years will be completely undermined by terrible public policy, lax law enforcement, and race-obsessed leadership.

I didn't know that Ellerbe was part of Shreveport. Interesting.

St. George pt. 2?
We are watching this administration getting exposed for what it really is
We all undermanned and underpaid the police department is. That’s no secret.
Now we are seeing that DPW is undermanned and underpaid. There aren’t enough people to clean ditches, pick up trash and fix streets.
Yet we have money for social programs, bike paths, and a community team.
Let SG keep some of their tax dollars so we can clean up our part of the parish. SWB can’t do it.

Technically, but I can tell you that I have lived here in this timeframe. My old Alpharetta address at one place is now Johns Creek and the house I live in today was Alpharetta, but is now Milton. Another interesting thing, North Park was retained by Alpharetta and sits as an island of Alpharetta property in the middle of Milton.

Dunwoody was also formerly unincorporated.

Attempting to compare St. George to Buckhead is hilarious

Your address has zero to do with the city you live in (unincorporated areas will usually take from the nearest incorporated city, which is why your address was Alpharetta).

I said this in one of the other threads on this subject, but the effects of collapsing cities will have effects far beyond their borders.

Didn't Sandy Springs do the same thing? Or was it unincorporated before?
It was unincorporated. Part of that was that the bars could stay open much later than Atlanta.
FWIW I think Buckhead secession would be terrible for Atlanta. I mean, do you want Atlanta to be more or less like St. Louis? Incorporation absolutely gutted that city.
