Our Area

With offices in Richmond and Columbia Counties, we proudly serve the nearly three quarters of a million residents of the Fort Gordon and Central Savannah River Area (CSRA ) areas of Georgia and South Carolina.

With the City of Augusta at its center, the CSRA is, officially, a 13-county region in Georgia, and is also considered to include five to eight counties in South Carolina. The area was first called the CSRA in 1950 when C.C. McCollum won a $250 contest sponsored by The Augusta Chronicle to generate the best name for the area. Today the acronym is so commonly used that the full name is not known to all residents. The region is located on and named after the Savannah River, which forms the border between the two states. The largest cities within the CSRA are Augusta, Ga., and Aiken, SC.

As of the 2010 American Community Survey from the U.S. Census Bureau, the CSRA had a total population of 709,433, and the six-county Augusta-Richmond County Metropolitan Statistical Area (at the center of the CSRA) had a population of 543,738, making it the second largest city in Georgia.

Augusta is home to the United States Army Signal Center Fort Gordon, the state’s Health Sciences University and Medical College and Augusta State University. The city is recognized internationaly for its state-of-the-art medical facilities and growing business and manufacturing sectors. Augusta has been rated as the second best place to live in Georgia, and 111th in the nation. (Places Rated Almanac).
