Georgetown CDP, GA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Georgetown CDP is a mid-size town in Georgia, with 11,606 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #101 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 85% of them. The median age here is 34 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 Georgetown CDP earn a median of $80,231 a year, 2.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 40% 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 7.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Georgetown CDP is valued at $257,700, 15.1% below the national figure and 34% above the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,446 a month, 2.8% above the national figure, or roughly $17,352 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.6% 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. 56.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
