Menlo city, GA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Menlo city is a very small community in Georgia, with 605 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #464 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 31% of them. The median age here is 36.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Menlo city earn a median of $70,625 a year, 10.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% 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 5.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Menlo city is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $615 a month, 56.3% below the national figure, or roughly $7,380 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 10.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 48.6% 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.
