Nine counties that make up the Southeast Georgia Regional Development Authority (RDA) are not just growing, but thriving.
Our communities are ideally located for manufacturing and logistics, in proximity to seaports at Savannah and Brunswick, Georgia, and Jacksonville, Florida, and international airports at Savannah and Jacksonville. These counties are business focused, with large tracts of land that can accommodate a variety of industries, multiple utility choices, and plentiful water. Their rural nature with small-town population centers also offers employers and employees excellent work-life balance.
