Webster County, Administrative division in Southwest Georgia, US.
Webster County is an administrative division in southwest Georgia with a rural character defined by farmland, forests, and small communities. Preston serves as the county seat where government offices are located.
The Georgia State Legislature created Webster County on December 16, 1853, by separating land from Stewart County. This formation allowed local governance to serve the growing population settling in the region.
The county maintains traditional agricultural practices through multiple generations of farming families who contribute to local food production.
The main hub and administrative center concentrate around Preston, where basic services and information are available. The rural character means that planning ahead is helpful when visiting different parts of the county.
Despite having only 2,354 residents as of 2022, Webster County maintains a robust local government structure with multiple specialized departments.
