ZIP code 30044

ZIP 30044 is a mid-size city in Gwinnett County, Georgia, with 100,471 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it first of 751 ranked by population. The median age here is 33 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. At this size the Census also publishes one-year estimates; the five-year values used here are steadier and let you compare against smaller neighbours on the same basis.

Households in ZIP 30044 earn a median of $76,133 a year, 3.1% below the national figure of $78,538. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 13% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 30044 is valued at $295,300, 2.7% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,753 a month, 24.7% above the national figure, or roughly $21,036 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 27.6% 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 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 63.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.

ZIP 30044 is tabulated inside Gwinnett County, Georgia, one of 16 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 751 across Georgia. This is a dense urban ZIP, where a single postal boundary can hold more residents than an entire rural county. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 30044 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 30044 reports a median household income of $76,133, 16% below the $90,277 county median, and 24% above the $61,524 typical GA ZIP.

Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,753 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Georgia charges 4% statewide, and local governments overlapping 30044 may add county, city or special-district levies on top. We publish the state floor for this ZIP rather than guessing a combined figure, because ZIP boundaries and taxing-district boundaries were drawn for different purposes and do not line up.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 30044 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
