Ambrose city, GA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Ambrose city is a very small community in Georgia, with 287 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #566 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 16% of them. The median age here is 35.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Ambrose city earn a median of $35,417 a year, 54.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 38% below the $57,300 median for the 378 Georgia cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 48.1% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in Ambrose city is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $625 a month, 55.5% below the national figure, or roughly $7,500 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. 46.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
With 287 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Ambrose city against its county rather than against national figures.
