ZIP 30071 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 30071 is a small city in Gwinnett County, Georgia, with 26,140 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #159 of 751 ranked by population — larger than 78% of them. The median age here is 32.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 ZIP 30071 earn a median of $61,351 a year, 21.9% below the national figure of $78,538. 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 20% 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 ZIP 30071 is valued at $333,700, 10% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,588 a month, 12.9% above the national figure, or roughly $19,056 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.1% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 53.8% 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.

Reading ZIP 30071 in context

How 30071 sits inside Gwinnett County and Georgia.

ZIP 30071 is tabulated inside Gwinnett County, Georgia, one of 16 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 751 across Georgia. This is a mid-sized suburban ZIP inside a county that is split across many delivery areas. 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 30071 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 30071 reports a median household income of $61,351, 32% below the $90,277 county median, and close to the $61,524 typical GA ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $333,700, close to the county figure and 72% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,588 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 30071 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 30071 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.
