Below is the complete, west-to-east list of Florida – Georgia bordering towns with key facts for travel, research, or local reference.
What counts as a Florida–Georgia bordering town?
Use a clear rule. Primary entries touch the state line with their official boundary. Secondary entries lie within 5 miles of the line and function as border neighbors. Include the town name, type (city or unincorporated), state and county, coordinates, 2020 population, the nearest town across the line, distance, and one short notable fact. This keeps the list useful for travelers, researchers, home buyers, and residents.
How do I verify locations and find more details?
Check official sources. Use GNIS and state GIS maps to confirm boundaries and coordinates. Use the U.S. Census for population figures. Visit county websites for local services and maps. Use the coordinates in any map app to view the exact spot and measure distance to the state line.
