Brooks County, Administrative division in southern Georgia, United States
Brooks County encompasses agricultural lands and small communities, including the city of Quitman, which serves as the county seat and administrative center.
Established in 1858, Brooks County developed from an agricultural region where cotton production dominated the local economy during the antebellum period.
The Brooks County Courthouse, built in Greek Revival style, stands in Quitman as a center for local government activities and community gatherings.
The county provides essential services through multiple departments, including law enforcement, education facilities, and public health programs for its residents.
Local communities of Barwick, Morven, and Pavo contribute to the county's agricultural production while maintaining distinct small-town characteristics.
