About Albany, GA.
Albany is an industrial town on the Flint River in Southwestern Georgia. It's the seat of Dougherty County and the principal city of the Albany, Georgia Metropolitan Area. As of the 2010 census, the city's population was 77,434, which makes it the 8th largest town in Georgia. It is best known for its excellent low cost of living, friendly small-town atmosphere, and mild winters.
It originated as a riverboat trade center but expanded after receiving military endorsement in the 1950s. The river is still integral to the city's economy, but manufacturing and other industries have risen after the military bases declined. Procter and Gamble's toilet paper factory in Albany is just one example of how the city has found alternate ways to stimulate growth. If you like living in a small town and having easy access to the river life, then Albany may be the place you want to call home.
