Quality of Life
| Crawford County lies in both the geographic and the idyllic heart of Georgia. Straddling the Coastal Plain and the Piedmont, its soil, weather, business and | |
| culture are blessed with the best of the state's variety. Life is a little less complicated, but business thrives. Starry skies escape the city lights, but the nearby urban vitality helps define the lifestyle. |  |
| Community organizations cooperate to preserve history and environment as assets for the future, make the county a safe place to live, and give our children the best possible education. | |
 |
Values are strong, neighbors are family, and everyone is welcome. |
