Whitemarsh Island CDP, GA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Whitemarsh Island CDP is a mid-size town in Georgia, with 6,918 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #142 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 79% of them. The median age here is 40.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Whitemarsh Island CDP earn a median of $113,250 a year, 44.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 98% 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 4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Whitemarsh Island CDP is valued at $360,400, 18.8% above the national figure and 88% above the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,724 a month, 22.6% above the national figure, or roughly $20,688 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.3% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 76.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
