The 10th-largest and the southernmost major city in Georgia, Valdosta is only 20 miles from the Florida border. This community holds center stage as the county seat and hosts a wealth of opportunities for business, education and fun. In 2003, the Greater Valdosta Area received Metropolitan designation from the U.S. Office of Management and Budget. The Greater Valdosta Area is known as the center for business, industry, retail, culture, education, health care, leisure and tourism activities for a 15-county area with 437,000 residents. One of Georgia’s fastest-growing counties, Lowndes County is home to Moody Air Force Base, Grand Bay Wildlife Management Area, Valdosta State University and Valdosta Technical College. Residents and visitors alike enjoy the mild winters and the scenic beauty of the area’s coastal plain. The region’s Florida-like climate and the relaxed lifestyle of this medium-sized city are attracting more retirees each year.

History of Valdosta

riginally settled by Creek and Seminole Native American tribes, who were followed by Spanish missionaries and finally American pioneers, Lowndes County was established in 1825. It was named for William Jones Lowndes, who was a lawyer, statesman and soldier from South Carolina. Lowndesville, at the junction of the Little and Withlacoochee rivers, was the county seat. By

Built in 1898 by Senator W.S. West, The Crescent has 23 rooms furnished in period style, a chapel and an octagonal school house. 14 Valdosta-Lowndes County Chamber of Commerce

1830, this town was known as Troupville, a quiet settlement and a steamboat landing. Then the Gulf and Atlantic Railroad appeared on the scene, connecting the area with Savannah. Quickly seeing the economic promise of being closer to the railroad, the citizens of Troupville relocated their entire town to a place four miles inland. Known as the “little town that moved to the railroad,” Troupville was renamed Valdosta. This name came from two sources: Val d’Aosta, the plantation home of former Georgia Governor George Troup, and a valley region in Italy. The first train passed through the settlement on July 4, 1860. Valdosta also became the county seat that year, and the current courthouse was built in 1905. Some of the original buildings from this period are now the community’s historic treasures. Preserved today by the Valdosta Heritage Foundation, several structures constructed between 1890 and the late 1920s are now on the National Register of Historic Places. Downtown Valdosta, which includes the Lowndes County Courthouse, Victorian Fairview and Patterson Street, keeps the story of the past alive for residents and visitors.

The Crescent, now the home of the Valdosta Garden Center, is an example of neoclassical architecture. The house is named for the dramatic two-story, crescent-shaped porch supported by 13 columns representing the 13 U.S. colonies. Built in 1898 by Senator W.S. West, it has 23 rooms furnished in period style, a chapel and an octagonal school house. The Crescent is open for tours. The Barber-Pittman House was built in 1915. Designed in the neoclassical style, the home was restored in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Today it provides office space for the Valdosta-Lowndes County Chamber of Commerce. E.R. Barber, the original owner of the house, was a businessman and inventor. In 1897, he opened Valdosta’s Coca-Cola bottling plant, the first outside Atlanta — and the second place in the world to bottle Coke. Pine trees in the area contribute to logging and related industries. Pecans, peanuts and tobacco thrive in Lowndes County’s sandy loam soil. These crops replaced Sea Island cotton, which was the region’s largest crop until the early 1900s, when the boll weevil killed cotton crops across the state. Valdosta was the largest inland market for this crop in the world between 1890 and 1916. Chartered in 1891, Hahira also looked to the cotton crop as a major contributor to its economy. Its first bank opened in 1904, and the newspaper began in 1906. In the late 1920s, after the cotton crop disappeared, beekeeping was introduced to the community. Importing the black bee from Germany and the yellow bee from Italy was an important step for the local economy.

aldosta has a wide variety of housing options to offer its residents, from Victorian homes in the historic district to luxurious estates under construction. Restoration of many of the old Southern mansions in recent years has enhanced the area’s charm and beauty. New residential construction, which exceeded $67.7 million in 2006, provides residents and newcomers the chance to build their dream homes at affordable, competitive prices. And for the increasing number of young professionals drawn to the area, the development of loft apartments in the downtown area is on the rise. In 2006, the Community Development Department of Valdosta won the Magnolia Award in the Homeownership category from the Georgia Department of Community Affairs for the 2005 Southern Hospitality Workcamp, in which 400 young people from across the nation repaired 51 homes for elderly and disabled citizens. This is the third time the department has won the award in the six years of the award’s existence. The Fairview Historic District, in the community’s oldest residential section, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984 because of its significant number of Victorian, late 19th-century and early 20th-century Revival homes. The site of Valdosta’s oldest home, an 1800s bed and breakfast, and many other lovingly restored historic residences, Fairview Historic District is also within walking distance of Valdosta’s charming downtown retail sector. www.valdostachamber.com 17

Valdosta is very residentially oriented, and the influence of the Old South is seen in the Colonial historic reproduction homes with their large columns and wide front porches. Contemporary ranch styles are also popular, with a large new residential development under construction near Moody Air Force Base. Common amenities include fireplaces, swimming pools and beautiful landscaping, with plants and flowers blooming yearround in a moderate climate where even winter temperatures range between 37 and 73 degrees. Both non-tropical and tropical plants — including jasmine, hibiscus, azaleas and camellias — thrive in this climate. Many lots, even in new subdivisions, already have several trees. As Valdosta continues to grow to the north, the community of Hahira is excited about the increase in residential development there. Whether an individual, couple or family wants to buy or rent, Hahira has affordable housing available. The excellent school system, low crime rate, relaxed lifestyle and historic downtown area make this an attractive choice to consider.

Agriculture

Lowndes County’s mild winters and well-drained soil create the ideal conditions for growing a variety of crops, including tobacco, pecans, peanuts, cotton, Vidalia onions, peaches, corn, hay and soybeans. Beef cattle production is another important part of the picture. Pine trees grown and harvested here have fostered the logging industry, providing pine lumber for construction and other industries. Pulpwood and turpentine are byproducts that have become added benefits. Hahira’s major crops are peanuts, soybeans and tobacco. Cotton farming and vegetable farming are rapidly expanding, too. Hahira Nursery, one of largest nurseries in South Georgia, is located here.
