Hephzibah, GA population, income and ZIP codes

Hephzibah city is a small town in Georgia, with 3,688 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #207 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 69% of them. The median age here is 40.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Hephzibah city earn a median of $62,155 a year, 20.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 8% above the $57,300 median for the 378 Georgia cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 24.8% 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 Hephzibah city is valued at $184,700, 39.1% below the national figure and 4% below the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,058 a month, 24.8% below the national figure, or roughly $12,696 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.4% 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×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 71.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
