The City of Augusta Georgia
| Georgia, the Peach State, was founded in 1733 and is one of the original 13 states. It was named in honor of England's King George II. Augusta is the second largest city in Georgia after Atlanta, and the second oldest city in Georgia after Savannah.
From the 2000 Census, Augusta's population was 195,182 persons. Covering an area of 302 square miles the density in the year 2000 was 646.0 persons per square mile. Augusta grew at the rate of 4.8% between 1990 and 2000. 50.4% of the population were of Black or of African American origin, and 2.8% were of Hispanic or Latino origin.
Augusta is Georgia's second oldest city and was founded in 1736 on the Savannah River banks as an Indian trading post by Georgia's founder, General James Edward Oglethorpe. The city was named in honor of the new bride of Frederick Louis, Prince of Wales and son of George II, King of England.
Augusta served as a colonial military outpost, the center of Georgia's eighteenth century tobacco trade, and a Revolutionary War battle site. Former twice Georgia Governor and the youngest signer of the Declaration of Independence George Walton predicted that Augusta would become "the mart of the whole country above it" when the war was over. He was right. The town tripled in size. Great things were done here. The Constitution of the United States was ratified and a new constitution for Georgia was drawn up here. Augusta was the capital of Georgia from 1785 until 1795.
Augusta is located on the Savannah River which forms the Georgia-South Carolina border. The city of Augusta lies within Richmond County, and the two were consolidated in 1996 to form one government. The metropolitan area spills over into Columbia County, which lies upriver to the northwest. Several other Georgia and South Carolina counties combine with Richmond, Columbia, and Aiken Counties to form the Central Savannah River Area, also referred to as the CSRA.
