Doraville city, GA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Doraville city is a mid-size town in Georgia, with 10,738 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #105 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 84% of them. The median age here is 35.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 Doraville city earn a median of $60,618 a year, 22.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 6% above the $57,300 median for the 378 Georgia cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 22.3% 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 Doraville city is valued at $297,700, 1.9% below the national figure and 55% above the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,661 a month, 18.1% above the national figure, or roughly $19,932 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 32.9% 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 4.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 56.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
