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.
