History

Macon County was formed in 1832 from territory acquired from the last cession of the Creek Indians. It is located in the east-central portion of the state in the Southeastern Plains Region. The Tuskegee National Forest is located in the county. Macon is bordered by Elmore, Tallapoosa, Lee, Russell, Bullock, and Montgomery counties. The county seat is located at Tuskegee, which is also the site of Tuskegee University. Other towns and communities include Shorter, Franklin, and Notasulga. Tuskegee is on I-85 about 40 miles east of Montgomery and 40 miles west of Columbus.
