Atalanta, Texas (population: 5,745), is 25 miles SW of Texarkana and 10 miles W of the Arkansas state line. Named after the city in Georgia by early settlers from that state, Atlanta was "born" in 1871 when the Texas and Pacific Railroad arrived and the post office opened.

I'm sure that in many towns of this aize, most of the downtown businesses (at least the ones still in operation)have moved out to the edge of town thoroughfare.

That's exactly what happens, chasrich. It's more than just Wal-Mart that has decimated small towns.
