ZIP code 30620

ZIP 30620 is a mid-size town in Barrow County, Georgia, with 16,564 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #231 of 751 ranked by population — larger than 69% of them. The median age here is 32.8 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 30620 earn a median of $80,867 a year, 3% above 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 10.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 30620 is valued at $294,100, 3.1% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,555 a month, 10.6% above the national figure, or roughly $18,660 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.1% 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 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. 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.

ZIP 30620 is tabulated inside Barrow County, Georgia, one of 4 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 751 across Georgia. This is a mid-sized ZIP that covers a large share of its county's addresses.

Against its own county, 30620 reports a median household income of $80,867, close to the $82,456 county median, and 31% above the $61,524 typical GA ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $294,100, 3% above the county figure and 51% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,555 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 30620 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 30620 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.
