Macon, Georgia (DoTWD)

Downtown Macon four days into the apocalypse.

**Macon, Georgia** is a small city located in rural Georgia, miles outside of Atlanta in a quiet urban area next to a forest in *Season One* of *Dawn of The Walking Dead*. This city is seen and visited by Lee Everett, and the group of survivors who set up and take refuge in the town during the outbreak.

## Pre-Apocalypse

### Rural Georgia

This city was the hometown of several people such as Lee Everett and his brother, B. Everett, the Police Officer who was transporting Lee to prison, and even Glenn. Though the city was fairly small, none of the characters ever met one another until the apocalypse began. Lee and his family owned and operated a drugstore pharmacy. However, Lee left his hometown and pursued other interests such as teaching at the University of Georgia. Because of Lee's departure, his brother was left in charge of the pharmacy. The central area of Macon was small, quiet, and peaceful until the outbreak occurred.

The following shops can be seen in Macon:

* Everett Pharmacy Drugstore
* Travelier Motel
* Sporting Goods Store
* Furniture Outlet Store
* Douglas Office Supplies
* Fulton Books Store
* Cherokee Hardware Store
* Tim's Tools & More
* Liquor Store
* Harriet Antiques & Collections
* Electronics Warehouse Store
* St. Mark's Thrift Shop
* Bernadette's Salon
* Sunrise Dry Cleaners
* Central Camera Store

## Post-Apocalypse

### Season One

#### "A New Day"

After Lee, Clementine, Rachel, Travis, Kenny and his family are all kicked off Hershel's Farm, they head towards Lee's former hometown. Kenny's truck starts to run low on gas so everyone gets out of the vehicle and ventures forth on foot. At first the town is quiet and seems deserted. However, Kenny spots what he thought was a man hidden behind a truck and calls out to him, not realizing he was a walker. His cries get the attention more walkers and soon the group finds themselves outnumbered. Carley appears and begins to fire off pistol rounds at the walkers, telling the group to hurry and take cover while Glenn guides everyone into the Everett Pharmacy Drugstore. Once inside the pharmacy everyone takes cover from the walkers, and they rest, becoming somewhat acquainted with each other.

While Lee tries to help Larry get his pills for his heart condition, Glenn goes on a supply run to the Travelier Motel in hopes to find supplies and gas for their vehicles. While at the motel, Glenn gets trapped, forcing Lee and Carley to come to his aid. Once they arrive, Glenn mentions another survivor trapped upstairs in a motel room and wants to rescue her. After a stealthy assault, the group rescues Irene only to find out that she's infected and wants to commit suicide. After the situation with Irene is dealt with, Lee, Carley, and Glenn head back to the pharmacy in town.

Back at the pharmacy, Lee goes outside on watch with Doug and notices his brother, a walker, trapped under a fallen telephone lamppost. He convinces Doug that he worked at the drugstore and has the keys to get into the back of the pharmacy for Larry's pills. Doug agrees and once Lee returns with the keys, an alarm is sounded as soon as the back door is open alerting nearby walkers. The group finds themselves under attack and need to defend their base while Kenny goes and gets his vehicle. Once he arrives, almost everyone escapes including Lee (despite Larry's violent tendencies towards him).

The remaining group members take new refuge at the Travelier Motel to try and recuperate and regain what they had lost. Once Lee interacts with the members of the group, he believes that the motel now can be their new base and can hold out the apocalypse there until the Military or any aid (such as the FRS) arrives until just then, the power goes out.

#### "Starved For Help"

The town is hardly seen in this episode as the survivors continue to take refuge on the outskirts of town at the Travelier Motel. After three months of defending their base, Lee and the group meet the St. John Family, Lee mentions to them that he is from Macon.
