Chatsworth city, GA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Chatsworth city is a small town in Georgia, with 4,857 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #173 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 74% of them. The median age here is 32.2 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 Chatsworth city earn a median of $68,176 a year, 13.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 19% above the $57,300 median for the 378 Georgia cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 15.5% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Chatsworth city is valued at $199,100, 34.4% below the national figure and 4% above the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $823 a month, 41.5% below the national figure, or roughly $9,876 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 61.4% 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.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
