Fort Gordon is fast becoming a center for joint forces activities, training and operations and is a huge employer in east Georgia. With a workforce of 31,155, much of the installation’s annual economic impact of nearly $2.4 billion goes directly into area shops, real estate, banks and other businesses.

The Augusta Metro Area and Fort Gordon create a unique synergy. As trusted partners and recognized leaders in city management and public administration, both communities are constantly being improved by the other’s quality facilities and excellent services.

Fort Gordon has met the challenge of change by becoming a proactive and diverse community welcoming partnerships in its innovative approach to installation management. By sharing together, everyone benefits from making Fort Gordon and the local community into one integrated, cooperative and caring body.
