Welcome to Pierce County
Thank you for visiting the Pierce County, Georgia, website. Pierce County is nestled in southeast Georgia and provides residents and visitors with a beautiful rural atmosphere year-round. Whether blooming with the promise of spring or set ablaze with the colors of fall, the beautiful farmland and small-town atmosphere that make up our county are a sight to behold and are full of natural wonders to be discovered. The Alabaha River takes a winding course through the county, creating wonderful fishing and plenty of opportunities for outdoor entertainment. A peaceful small-town atmosphere offers a haven from the hustle and bustle of contemporary life, and the sense of community here is as old and as strong as the land itself.
We have friendly, hardworking residents who are proud of their heritage while looking toward the future with hope and initiative. Whether you are looking for a scenic place to visit, a hometown in which to raise a family or a willing community in which to locate a business, you are welcome in our county.
So come visit one of our many churches, go fishing, explore the history of the ‘ole Okefenokee, or take a scenic drive across our country roads. We hope to see you and “Welcome” home. from your PIERCE County Board of Commissioners

Community Development Block Grant – Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR)
In the event of a Presidential Disaster Declaration Congress may appropriate funds to be used for significant unmet needs for long-term recovery. HUD allocates those funds to States and, in some cases, local governments to fund eligible recovery activities.
CDBG-DR funds are intended to supplement other Federal recovery assistance programs, and in some cases can also be used as a match to other Federal funds.
CDBG-DR funds are often referred to as the “funds of last resort.”
