Everett, Georgia

Glynn County, Georgia · Population 158

Everett is a small census-designated place tucked into the coastal lowlands of Glynn County, a few miles inland from Brunswick and the barrier islands of the Georgia coast. It sits within one of the faster-growing counties in coastal Georgia — Glynn County's 84,499 residents spread across a landscape shaped by marshes, rivers, and Atlantic hurricane tracks. Everett itself is a quiet residential pocket, not a commercial center. The nearest city of any scale is Brunswick, and the Golden Isles — St. Simons Island, Jekyll Island, Sea Island — are a short drive east.

People & Demographics

The ACS 2022 estimates put Everett's counted population at 54, with 34 households and a median age of 33.3. Average household size is 1.59, which is low — well below the Georgia state norm. Twenty children under 18 live in the community. All 54 residents counted in the race tables are recorded as white. Twelve of those residents fall below the poverty line, a meaningful share for a place this small.

The headline population figure of 158 and the ACS survey figure of 54 reflect different measurement windows — CDPs this small experience wide variance between decennial counts and American Community Survey estimates.

Economy & Employment

Twenty-two residents are in the labor force. Notably, zero are reported as unemployed. Income and per capita figures were not available in the ACS data for this community, a common outcome for very small CDPs where sample sizes are insufficient to produce reliable estimates.

Glynn County's broader economy is anchored by tourism, healthcare, logistics, and retail centered in Brunswick. The College of Coastal Georgia (912-279-5700) is a nearby institution that serves working adults across the region.

Housing

All 34 housing units in Everett are occupied — zero vacancies. That's a fully saturated housing stock. Of those 34 units, 12 are owner-occupied and 22 are renter-occupied, making renters the clear majority at roughly 65 percent of households. Median home value and median rent figures were not available from the ACS for this community.

The renter-heavy profile combined with a young median age (33.3) suggests Everett functions partly as workforce housing within commuting range of Brunswick-area employers.

Getting Around

Every one of Everett's 22 workers carpools — the data shows zero driving alone, zero using transit, zero walking, and zero working from home. That's an unusual commute pattern and may reflect a specific workplace or shared-ride arrangement among residents. The surrounding Glynn County area is car-dependent; Brunswick has no meaningful fixed-route transit infrastructure for rural CDP residents.

Healthcare

Natural Hazards

Glynn County's FEMA disaster declaration history is extensive and reflects the county's direct exposure to Atlantic storm systems:

That is fifteen federal disaster declarations since 2004 — an average of more than one per year. Residents should treat hurricane preparedness as a routine annual concern, not an occasional one. Flood insurance, evacuation routes, and storm supply planning are practical necessities in this geography.
