Household Average Size by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Georgia

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The Atlanta metropolitan area exhibits notable internal variation, with suburban zip codes in Gwinnett and Henry counties reaching household sizes above 3.0, while urban core areas around downtown Atlanta drop below 2.0, reflecting the contrast between family-oriented suburbs and smaller urban households. Southern Georgia, particularly the corridor from Albany through Valdosta, trends toward moderate household sizes around 2.4–2.6, with scattered yellow-shaded zip codes suggesting pockets of larger households likely tied to rural, family-dense communities. Coastal zip codes near Savannah and the Golden Isles display relatively lower averages, consistent with retiree and tourism-influenced demographics, while a few isolated dark purple zones across the state—notably near college towns like Athens and Milledgeville—indicate concentrations of single-person or student households.
