Household Median Income by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Atlanta Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The highest household median incomes, exceeding $125,000, concentrate in a north-central corridor stretching from Brookhaven through Sandy Springs, Roswell, and Alpharetta, with several zip codes in this band reaching $150,000 or above. A stark income divide emerges along a roughly east-west axis through downtown Atlanta, where zip codes immediately south and southwest of the city center—particularly near Hartsfield-Jackson—drop to $20,000–$40,000, representing a gap of over $100,000 from affluent northern suburbs just 15–20 miles away. The western and southwestern periphery of the metro area generally falls in the $40,000–$60,000 range, while pockets of moderate wealth ($80,000–$100,000) appear around Smyrna, Marietta, and scattered eastern suburbs.
