Atlanta's 6th City Council district
Atlanta's 6th City Council district is one of the twelve geographic districts in the Atlanta City Council. It is currently represented by Alex Wan since 2022, who was elected to a nonconsecutive term to succeed Jennifer Ide.
The district was created in 1973 after a new city charter was passed, which replaced the former at-large six-member Board of Aldermen with a 15-member City Council of 12 districts and 6 (later 3) at-large posts. A previous Sixth Ward existed in various forms from 1854 to 1954.
