Bluffton town, GA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Bluffton town is a very small community in Georgia, with 351 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #535 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 20% of them. The median age here is 26.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Bluffton town earn a median of $83,875 a year, 6.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 46% above 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 2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Bluffton town is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $575 a month, 59.1% below the national figure, or roughly $6,900 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 8.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 75.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
A median age of 26.1 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 351 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Bluffton town against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld home value for Bluffton town because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography.
