Duluth city, GA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Duluth city is a small city in Georgia, with 31,958 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #39 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 94% of them. The median age here is 38.1 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 Duluth city earn a median of $95,580 a year, 21.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 67% above the $57,300 median for the 378 Georgia cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 6.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Duluth city is valued at $366,000, 20.6% above the national figure and 91% above the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,785 a month, 27% above the national figure, or roughly $21,420 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 56.2% 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.
