Bibb City is a former company town in Muscogee County, Georgia, United States. At the 2000 census, it had a total population of 510. It was incorporated in 1909 as a city surrounding—and managed by—the Bibb Manufacturing Company, which operated a textile mill there. After the mill closed in 1998, the city dissolved its charter on December 7, 2000, lacking funding to continue city operations.
Bibb City was annexed by the city of Columbus, of which it is now a neighborhood. In September 2006, Bibb City was nominated as an historic district for the National Register of Historic Places by the State Historic Preservation Officer. On Feb. 14, 2010, the national designation was approved for The Bibb City Historic District and it was listed in the NRHP.
