About Us

The county is named for Prince George of Denmark, the brother of the King of Denmark and husband of Princess Anne, daughter of King James II of England. The year the county was formed, 1702, Princess Anne became Queen Anne. 

As with most US communities, Prince George has transitioned from an agricultural economy to an industrial economy to the information economy. Fort Lee, the County’s largest economic asset, continues to be a catalyst for progress.

Rural, yet suburban. Prince George County continues to experience a steady population & economic growth while maintaining an optimum quality of life for its citizens. Prince George is committed to being the best place to live, learn, work and raise a family!
