What it’s like

The place. Bogart is a small town in Oconee County, Georgia, where nearly everyone lives in a home they own. Incomes here run below the county's, and homes are priced well above what most of the country pays, though renting is also fairly costly. Winters are mild and mostly free of snow, summers are hot, and the year brings plenty of rain.

Work. Residents work mainly in schools, hospitals and social care, with many others in professional and business services, banks, insurance and property, and manufacturing. Across Oconee County, some of the largest workplaces are Oconee County Schools, Hillpointe Construction and Walmart. Unemployment in the county is low and has eased a little over the past year, and the county has added jobs. The typical commute is a moderate one, and few people work from home.

Things to do. The State Botanical Garden of Georgia is a short drive away, as is the Georgia Museum of Art, which suits a quiet afternoon indoors. Sanford Stadium, a stadium also a short drive off, is the place to catch a game. For time outdoors by the water, the Oconee River is a longer drive away.

Natural hazards

FEMA rates every natural hazard here relatively low or very low.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Bogart’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.

From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Oconee County and the Athens-Clarke County, GA metro.
