Putney CDP, GA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Putney CDP is a small town in Georgia, with 3,244 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #225 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 66% of them. The median age here is 36.7 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 Putney CDP earn a median of $69,615 a year, 11.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 21% 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 15.4% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Putney CDP is valued at $132,300, 56.4% below the national figure and 31% below the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,132 a month, 19.5% below the national figure, or roughly $13,584 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.5% 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 1.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 78.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
