As a consolidated entity, the government is considered both a city and county. Macon had a population of 154,840 as of July 1, 2019. Situated in the center of Georgia, whose economy is forecasted for steady growth well into the foreseeable future, and at the physical crossroads of two major interstates and excellent highway networks, Macon GA is a great place for businesses; and local employers draw from a civilian labor force that includes at least five surrounding counties. In addition to low business costs, abundant water, two rail roads, and a Certified Georgia Work Ready status with Bibb County holding the distinction of being the largest county in Georgia by population to achieve Georgia Work Ready certification, Macon GA is also just a seventy- five minute drive away from Atlanta’s Hartsfield International Airport, adding value and convenience for employers and employees alike. While Robins Air Force Base in neighboring Warner Robins is the single largest employer in the Midstate, greater Macon GA looms large as the financial, retail, medical, educational, and cultural center of Middle Georgia. Top employers in Macon GA are impressively diverse among industries, as well, with education, health care, aerospace, manufacturing, government, insurance, retail, and financial services strongly represented in workforce numbers. Macon-Bibb County Georgia’s consolidated government and local business community works together to enhance the economic climate and to attract new businesses and visitors, expand existing industry, and to recruit new residents. In addition to the strong commitment of local companies to stay in Macon- Bibb, efforts have drawn new businesses to the area. Major employers within Macon-Bibb County include Navicent Health Medical Center (formerly the Medical Center of Central Georgia), the Bibb County School District, Coliseum Health System, Mercer University, Macon-Bibb Government, Wal-Mart, and YKK, Inc. Macon-Bibb County has more than 500 practicing physicians using three full service and two psychiatric hospitals, totaling more than 1,150 beds. This includes Navicent Health Medical Center, which is a regional care facility serving a 50 county area. The aerospace, manufacturing, lodging, and food service industries also provide a large number of well-paid jobs. Robins Air Force Base (RAFB), located in adjacent Houston County, continues to favorably impact the Macon-Bibb County economy. Downtown Macon is a vibrant hub of activity. The Georgia Sports Hall of Fame, historic Douglass Theatre, Tubman African-American Museum, Cox Capital Theater, Grand Opera House and City Auditorium and Centreplex anchor the downtown entertainment district. The Museum of Arts and Sciences, located centrally in Macon-Bibb County, is Georgia’s largest museum devoted to the arts and sciences. 15 NATIONAL NET LEASE GROUP SRS NATIONAL NET LEASE GROUP IS THE EXCLUSIVE NET LEASE CAPITAL MARKETS TEAM OF SRS REAL ESTATE PARTNERS. 275+ 25+ #1 2100+ 485 $1.5B RETAIL OFFICES LARGEST REAL ESTATE RETAIL PROPERTIES TRANSACTION PROFESSIONALS SERVICES FIRM TRANSACTIONS SOLD VALUE in North America in 2019 in 2019 in 2019 exclusively dedicated to retail company wide NNLG NNLG This marketing material has been prepared by SRS National Net Lease Group (SRS) and has been approved for distribution by the owner.
