Smyrna is a city in Cobb County, Georgia, United States, away from Downtown Atlanta. It is in the inner ring of the Atlanta Metropolitan Area. As of the 2010 census, the city had a population of 51,271.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Geographic Identifiers: 2010 Demographic Profile Data (G001): Smyrna city, Georgia )〕 The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the population in 2013 to be 53,438.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Incorporated Places and Minor Civil Divisions Datasets: Subcounty Resident Population Estimates: April 1, 2010 to July 1, 2013: Georgia )〕 It is included in the Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Roswe MSA, which is included in the Atlanta--Athens-Clarke--Sandy Springs CSA. Smyrna grew by 28% between the years 2000 and 2012. It is historically one of the fastest growing cities in the State of Georgia, and one of the most densely populated cities in the metro area. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=City of Smyrna : Community Development )〕 ==History== Pioneers began settling the area in 1832. By the late 1830s, a religious encampment called Smyrna Camp Ground had become a popular travel destination and was well known throughout Georgia. After the completion of the Western and Atlantic Railroad in 1842 the area began to grow. It was known by several names until 1872 – Varner's Station, Ruff's Siding, Neal Dow and Ruff's Station. The city was incorporated with the name Smyrna in 1872. Two Civil War battles occurred in the area, the Battle of Smyrna Camp Ground on July 3, 1864, and the Battle of Ruff's Mill the next day. The area's businesses, homes and 1849 covered bridge (since rebuilt and still in use today) were burned by Sherman's troops. The city elected its first woman mayor, Lorena Pace Pruitt, in 1946. The nearby Bell Bomber plant that produced B-29 bombers during World War II was reopened by Lockheed in 1951 and became a catalyst for growth. The city's population grew during the next two decades, from 2,005 in 1950 to almost 20,000 by 1970. The restaurant scene in the film ''Joyful Noise'' was shot at Howard's Restaurant in Smyrna in 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hollywood Food Fight Makes A "Joyful Noise'' At Howard's )〕 Smyrna was ranked #4 in a 2014 study of the Best Cities for Young Adults in Georgia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Study: Best Cities for Young Adults in Georgia )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Smyrna is a city in Cobb County, Georgia, United States, away from Downtown Atlanta.
