Welcome to the City of Statesboro
Welcome to the city that soars.
Welcome to Statesboro — a forward-looking city where growth, innovation, and opportunity are shaping a bold new future. As I serve in my third term as Mayor, I am honored to lead a community that is not only thriving today, but boldly preparing for the possibilities of tomorrow.
Statesboro is one of the fastest-growing cities in Southeast Georgia and has emerged as a regional economic hub with a powerful and expanding footprint. Our community is consistently ranked among the best places in the nation to start a small business — a testament to our entrepreneurial climate, supportive partnerships, and the determination of our people.
Anchored by the combined strength of Georgia Southern University and Ogeechee Technical College, Statesboro stands at the center of a dynamic higher-education corridor. These institutions elevate our workforce, fuel innovation, and attract talent from across the country.
We are a diverse and welcoming community — a place where people of every background, culture, and experience form a shared identity rooted in belonging. This diversity is our strength, inspiring creativity and shaping a city that embraces all who call it home.
Every day, you can feel the thriving energy and the unmistakable can-do spirit that defines who we are. From revitalized corridors and new business growth to investments in infrastructure, transportation, and quality of life, Statesboro is building for the future while honoring its rich heritage. We are creating a city that works for everyone — a city with rising opportunity and limitless potential.
Whether you are visiting, choosing to plant new roots, or have lived here your entire life, I hope you feel the sense of promise that runs through the heart of this community. Together, we are writing the next chapter of Statesboro’s story — one that is vibrant, inclusive, and filled with possibility.
Welcome to Statesboro. Welcome to the city that soars.
Sincerely,
Mayor Jonathan M. McCollar
