The county's population in 2000 was about 588,448 and we’ve only continued to grow since then, with the population expected to reach one million by the year 2022.
Gwinnett has many advantages, beginning with its location and road system. The county is just 45 minutes from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and 30 minutes from downtown Atlanta.

The County Administrator and County Attorney are appointed by the Board of Commissioners and serve at its pleasure.

In addition to the executive side of County government, certain services are provided through Constitutional officers and independent elected officials.
