Statesboro, County seat in southeastern Georgia, United States.
The city spans across Bulloch County with a population of 33,438 residents and functions as the principal center of the Statesboro micropolitan area.
George Sibbald donated 9,301 acres of land in 1801 for establishing a county seat, leading to the official incorporation of Statesboro in December 1803.
The city gained musical recognition through the blues song Statesboro Blues, written by Blind Willie McTell in the 1920s and later performed by The Allman Brothers Band.
Georgia Southern University, East Georgia State College, and Ogeechee Technical College provide higher education opportunities for students in the region.
During the Civil War, Union soldiers found the town so small that a local saloon owner informed them they stood in its center.
