Housing Owner-Occupied % of Units, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Atlanta Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Owner-occupancy rates in the Atlanta metro follow a clear core-periphery gradient, with the lowest concentrations (below 50%) clustered in central Atlanta, Brookhaven, Sandy Springs, and portions of the Marietta corridor, reflecting dense multifamily and renter-heavy housing stock. Outer suburban zip codes to the north, south, and east consistently exceed 75–90% owner-occupancy, with particularly high rates in the far northern reaches near Alpharetta and the southeastern and southwestern fringe areas. A notable exception to the suburban pattern appears in several zip codes west and southwest of Hartsfield-Jackson, where owner-occupancy dips below 50%, suggesting pockets of renter concentration outside the urban core.
