Georgia Is One of the Few Places Where Middle-Class Americans Can Afford an Average-Priced Home
Briefly

Despite rising home prices and interest rates affecting national housing markets, Georgia stands out as a state where homeownership remains attainable. With a median household income of $74,632 and a median home price of $380,000, families in Georgia can afford homes priced considerably close to their income range. The state's growing metropolitan areas, particularly Atlanta, coupled with available suburban housing options, provide a balanced environment where housing remains financially feasible. Additional cities like Augusta and Columbus further enhance this affordability, offering diverse choices for prospective homeowners.
Georgia offers a rare balance between income and affordability, making homeownership a reachable goal for many middle-class families.
For a family earning the median income, the monthly budget available for a mortgage would be around $1,866, allowing them to afford homes just under $373,000.
