== Fun facts ==
* Emerging from its agricultural past, Putnam County has become an important center of industry and recreation in Georgia. Once the land of cotton, large plantations, and great wealth, a different look is now taking hold in the county with the establishment of golf resorts, gated communities, and new businesses.
* During the Civil War in 1864, Union general William T. Sherman and his army passed through the area on their March to the Sea. Putnam County had voted against secession in 1861, but this fact did not prevent the burning and destruction of cotton gins, railroads, and bridges.
* In the 21st century, dairy farming is more important to Putnam County than cotton. It annually holds the nationally known Dairy Festival.
* Since the early 21st century, the county has had a housing boom. It has proximity to Lake Oconee, a recreation site, as well as to major employment centers such as Atlanta, Athens, and Macon.
* Politically, Putnam County is strongly Republican in most elections.
* Putnam County is also home to Rock Eagle Lake, Cuscowilla on Lake Oconee, and the Central Georgia Branch Station WMA.
* A small Heart Scale production facility is located near Willard.
