Who owns the towers in Effingham County

Height and age
The median structure here stands 303 feet, 47 feet taller than the Georgia median — a sign of broadcast and rural coverage towers rather than short suburban sites. The tallest is a guyed tower near Rincon at 505 feet, built in 2006. More than in any other decade, 34% were built in the 2000s.
Every registered structure
Sorted tallest first. The registration number opens the FCC record, which shows the exact location and the owner's contact for the structure. A tower on your land that is not in this list is probably under 200 feet and away from airports, so it did not need registering — see why some towers aren't listed.
