Cedartown city, GA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Cedartown city is a mid-size town in Georgia, with 10,211 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #111 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 83% of them. The median age here is 31.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Cedartown city earn a median of $32,064 a year, 59.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 44% 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 35.5% 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 Cedartown city is valued at $148,000, 51.2% below the national figure and 23% below the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $857 a month, 39% below the national figure, or roughly $10,284 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 32.1% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 44.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. 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.
