Berrien County, Georgia
Berrien County sits in south Georgia, part of the state’s coastal plain. Nashville serves as the county seat, though it’s no music city. The county’s named after John McPherson Berrien, a lawyer and politician from way back.
The Alapaha River snakes through, offering good fishing spots. Paradise Public Fishing Area has beautiful scenery and primitive campsites. Oh ya, it has fishing too.
Agriculture drives the economy here. Tobacco used to be king, but now it’s all about cotton and peanuts. Berrien County is rural Georgia county life doing its thing. So, if you want a taste of small-town Southern life, you might just fit right in.
