Liberty County is built around Fort Stewart, one of the largest U.S. Army installations east of the Mississippi River, and its economy and housing market move closely with the military community stationed there. Hinesville, the county seat, is the county’s largest city and hub for shopping, schools, and services, while Midway, Riceboro, and Walthourville offer quieter, more rural alternatives nearby. Liberty County’s steady demand from military families and its lower price points compared to Savannah make it a popular choice for both first-time buyers and investors.
