Guyton city, GA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Guyton city is a small town in Georgia, with 2,574 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #261 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 30.3 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 Guyton city earn a median of $71,115 a year, 9.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 24% 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 17.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Guyton city is valued at $200,800, 33.8% below the national figure and 5% above the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $850 a month, 39.5% below the national figure, or roughly $10,200 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.3% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 84.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
