Fair Oaks, GA population, income and ZIP codes

Fair Oaks CDP is a mid-size town in Georgia, with 10,392 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #107 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 84% of them. The median age here is 28.9 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 Fair Oaks CDP earn a median of $61,681 a year, 21.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 8% 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 18.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Fair Oaks CDP is valued at $198,400, 34.6% below the national figure and 4% above the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,209 a month, 14% below the national figure, or roughly $14,508 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.5% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 36.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 28.9 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.
