Crawford County, GA Property Records & Statistics
Crawford County has a median rent of $644, below the $818 median across Georgia and the $840.25 national median. The median home value, however, is $191,800, higher than Georgia's $140,550 and the national median of $173,750, so owning costs more here than the low rents might suggest.
The median property tax rate is 1.12%, above the state rate of 0.9% and well above the national rate of 0.74%. Combined with higher home values, that means owners carry a comparatively heavy tax burden. Renter-occupied housing accounts for 23.09% of occupied homes, a little under the state's 25.74% and above the national 21.81%, so most residents own their homes.
Median household income is $46,789, below the state's $53,094 and the national $65,108. The unemployment rate is 5.24%, nearly double the state rate of 2.91% and the national rate of 2.87%.
Overall, the figures describe a county with inexpensive rentals, relatively high home values and property taxes, incomes below state and national levels, and an unemployment rate well above both benchmarks.
