The Evans County Georgia map covers a compact rural county in the southeastern part of the state. Claxton serves as the county seat and principal service center, while Hagan, Bellville, and Daisy reflect the railroad and agricultural history that shaped the county’s incorporated communities.
Evans County was created in 1914 from parts of Bulloch and Tattnall counties. The U.S. Census Bureau estimated 11,028 residents on July 1, 2025, compared with 10,774 counted in the 2020 census.

Claxton and the County’s Local Identity
Claxton developed after the Savannah and Western Railroad reached the area in the 1890s. Local landowners provided a right-of-way and helped establish a station, and the settlement grew into the administrative center selected when Evans County was organized.
The city is widely associated with fruitcake production. Claxton’s official city information describes two fruitcake bakeries, poultry production, agriculture, industry, and small businesses as recognizable parts of its economy. County offices, health services, schools, and local media also reinforce Claxton’s central role.
Map Coverage and Included Files
This Evans County Georgia map set includes color, black-and-white, and outline A3 JPG files. The labeled versions show Claxton, Hagan, Bellville, and Daisy, while the outline file removes names and fills so users can add their own notes, symbols, or color categories.
The four municipalities form a useful framework for reading the county. Claxton and Hagan sit close to one another, while Bellville and Daisy extend the view toward other parts of the county and show how small communities developed along the historic transportation corridor.
Four Municipalities Shaped by Rail and Agriculture
- Claxton is the county seat, the largest local service center, and the community most closely associated with fruitcake and poultry production.
- Hagan grew around a railroad depot planned in the late nineteenth century and remains closely linked to Claxton.
- Bellville developed through agriculture, timber, naval stores, and railroad access; its restored depot preserves part of that history.
- Daisy lies along U.S. 280 in a farming area near the Canoochee River and the Evans County Public Fishing Area.
Georgia’s Department of Community Affairs groups the county and all four cities in a joint comprehensive plan. That planning structure reflects their shared public services and economic concerns, but each community retains a separate municipal identity.

The county’s population remained relatively stable between 2010 and 2020 before a modest increase in the latest estimates. Its land area and small population produce a low-density settlement pattern, with most services concentrated in and around Claxton rather than spread evenly across the county.
Evans County’s official site identifies manufacturing, health care, education, social services, retail, construction, and agriculture among the main employment sectors. Corn, cotton, carrots, wheat, and soybeans are part of the local agricultural landscape, alongside pine stands and orchards.
Canoochee River and the Southeastern Georgia Setting
The Canoochee River is the county’s most prominent named water feature. Local environmental rules establish a protected corridor along the river, and the nearby public fishing area provides access to ponds, boardwalks, and outdoor recreation in the eastern part of the county.
Evans County borders Bulloch, Bryan, Tattnall, and Candler counties. It is inland rather than coastal, but it sits within the broad southeastern Georgia plain west of the Savannah-area coastal counties.
Color Map
The color version separates the county and surrounding areas with different fills while retaining the four municipality names. It works well when the map must show both the central Claxton–Hagan area and the more separated positions of Bellville and Daisy.
Black and White Map
The black-and-white file keeps the place names and boundary lines but removes color fills. The simplified appearance is suitable for monochrome printing and for documents where the labels matter more than regional color coding.
Outline Map
The outline file contains the county outline and included internal boundaries without community names. It can be used for hand labeling, classroom exercises, custom categories, or graphics that need a clean geographic base.
