Albany, Georgia; where history and nature flow!

The Community: Albany, GA
There is not another city that can offer big city amenities while providing the comforts of a small town like the City of Albany. Albany is beautifully positioned on the banks of the Flint River. Incorporated in 1838, Nelson Tift founded the city and named it after the capital of New York. It is the hub of Southwest Georgia for culture, shopping, education, healthcare, and recreation. In short, Albany is a great place to live, work and play.

When it comes to entertainment, there is something for everyone. Popular attractions include the Riverfront Walk which features the Ray Charles Plaza – a tribute to the Albany native and musical genius, the historic Bridge House, the Municipal Auditorium, Flint RiverQuarium and Turtle Grove Park. Outdoor attractions are varied and plentiful. Chehaw Park is a nature preserve and wild-animal park spanning 800 acres where visitors can spot an American bald eagle or observe cheetahs and zebras from an elevated boardwalk. Camping, disc golf, a children’s play park and a nationally sanctioned BMX racing/mountain bike trail add to the offerings of this outdoor adventure. Radium Springs Gardens preserves Georgia’s largest natural spring. An adjacent botanical garden, with walkways among plants and flowers, is a fitting enhancement to the area’s charm. So whether you’re looking for a place to live, work or play, Albany is a community with opportunities and we have it all.
