Liberty County Georgia Government

Here, residents can swim in the ocean and cast shrimp nets in the marshes. Families can hike or bike coastal trails to wind down and disconnect. Yet Liberty County, a mecca for manufacturers and businesses, is connected to the globe by a network of interstates, rails, air and sea ports. In Liberty County, tidal creeks that carried the canoes of Indians curl quietly through untouched marsh. Our tourist trade is increasing as city-weary travelers exit interstates to let tranquility lap gently at their feet. Our school children race around the globe on web-wired computers and when the bell rings, they race their bicycles home through quiet neighborhoods. Highly trained engineers, who spend the week manufacturing parts that keep our high-tech world spinning, spend Saturday mornings engineering the perfect golf swing. U.S. Army soldiers, proudly wearing the uniform of freedom, walk the busy business districts of Liberty County, home centuries ago of two signers of the Declaration of Independence. Liberty County is a fascinating portrait of the old South and the new, of comforting tradition and of well-planned cutting-edge progress. Our visionary leaders preserved what is best about our historic, coastal community, while carefully managing incredible growth and preparing for this new century with futuristic schools, technology and infrastructures. Welcome to Liberty County! We are sure you will love it as much as we do!
