Atlanta, especially Fulton County, is among places where it’s most affordable to rent rather than buy a home, according to a new study.
That’s not the case in other areas: Buying a home is more affordable than renting one in most metropolitan counties analyzed in a new survey.
Cheaper To Rent An Atlanta Home, Study Says
Figures from Attom Data Solutions‘ 2020 Rental Affordability Report show that owning a median-priced, three-bedroom home is more affordable than renting a three-bedroom property in 53% of the U.S. counties analyzed for the report.
Among counties with a population of 1 million or more, those most affordable for renting are:
- Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), PA (24.3%)
- Cuyahoga County (Cleveland), OH (25.6%)
- Fulton County (Atlanta), GA (26.2%)
- Oakland County, MI (outside Detroit) (26.6%)
- Wayne County (Detroit), MI (27.5%)
But those areas were the exception. In 455 of the 855 U.S. counties surveyed, the numbers showed that it’s cheaper to buy a home than rent one.
The analysis highlights a split between different-sized markets, with ownership more affordable mainly in lightly populated counties and renting more affordable in more populous suburban or urban areas, the study says.
“Home ownership is a better deal than renting for the average wage earner in a slim majority of U.S. housing markets. However, there are distinct differences between different places, depending on the size and location from core metro areas,” said Todd Teta, chief product officer with ATTOM Data Solutions. “For sure, either buying or renting is a financial stretch or out of reach for individual wage earners throughout most of the country in the current climate. But with interest rates falling, owning a home can still be the more affordable option, even as prices keep rising.”
Last Thought
In 94, or 69%, of the 136 counties in the report that have a population of at least 500,000 or more, renting is more affordable than buying a home.
You may be wondering what it takes to buy a home in Atlanta, as the forecast for this year predicted, prices in certain areas are increasing. But that doesn’t mean you can’t find a nice home in metro Atlanta.
The first step in the process is to get pre-qualified for a mortgage.
There’s also ample opportunities to rent your home for cash. Keep up with what’s going on in Atlanta’s real estate scene on our Real Estate page.

Atlanta Housing, the City of Atlanta and other civic and municipal parties broke ground this week on the redevelopment of of Herndon Square.
Herndon Square sits on 12.3 acres of what used to be the Herndon Homes projects, located at Cameron Madison Alexander Boulevard and Northside Drive.

The development will feature an array of designs and building types, bedroom sizes for single professionals, families and seniors.
The project will be comprised of five phases of high-quality, mixed-income and mixed-use housing, according to city officials. Here are the plans for phases 1-5:
- Phase 1 will include 97 affordable units for seniors earning up to 60% of the area median income (AMI). Construction of the midrise building will be completed in Spring 2021 with an anticipated budget of $24 million.
- Phases 1 through 4 will include Land Use Restrictive Covenants, securing affordability on the site for a minimum of 30 years.
- Phase 5 will include plans for approximately 681 rental units and 32 for-sale townhomes, with 45% of the units projected to be affordable for households earning up to 80% of AMI.
“Atlanta Housing is delighted to begin a new decade with the groundbreaking and development of Herndon Square,” says Eugene Jones Jr., president and CEO of Atlanta Housing. “This development will add hundreds of new affordable housing units to the city of Atlanta and provide a catalyst for retail and neighborhood redevelopment on the west side.”

Lime scooters are going to disappear from Atlanta streets and curbsides as the company has made the decision to cease operations in the city.
“As part of our path to profitability, Lime has made the difficult decision to exit Atlanta and focus our resources on markets that allow us to meet our ambitious goals for 2020,” a company spokesman said in a statement Thursday.
Lime Scooters Leave Atlanta
The move comes months after Atlanta imposed controversial restrictions on scooters, including a night curfew. The city had also began impounding scooters and charging the companies a fee to retrieve them.
In the end, the less-than-ideal environment was too much for Lime.
“We appreciate the partnership we’ve enjoyed with Atlanta and remain hopeful we can reintroduce Lime back into the community when the time is right,” the spokesman was quoted as saying.
Lime Is Leaving These 12 Markets
Atlanta’s not the only city that will be Lime-less. Eleven other markets are losing the scooters. They are:
- Phoenix
- San Diego
- San Antonio
- Linz, Austria
- Bogotá, Buenos Aires,
- Montevideo, Lima,
- Puerto Vallarta, Rio de Janeiro
- and São Paulo in Latin America
The loss of Lime leaves Bird as the most popular scooter option in the city. But it also strands scores of gig workers who had earned extra money by charging Lime scooters.

The use of electric vehicles is rising on metro Atlanta streets, roads and freeways. That means people are in need of electric vehicle charging stations in Atlanta.
Electric chargers are a high priority. If you’re looking to charge, you may be wondering where are they in Atlanta? We’ll show you some of the best electric chargers in Atlanta along the Peachtree Road corridor.
Midtown Map: Electric Vehicle Chargers In Atlanta
The increase of EVs may mean that more people are taking advantage of rebates to buy them. Another reason may be that more people are becoming environmentally conscious.
Whatever the case, here are some EV charging stations along the Peachtree Street corridor in and outside downtown Atlanta and into Midtown.
EV Charging Stations In Atlanta Map
If you’re thinking about buying an electric car, you’ll need to know where these charging stations are. You’ll need to look at maps to find out where the EV charging stations are located around town.
Places that typically have charging stations are:
- Shopping malls
- Electric companies
- Colleges and universities
To get a more accurate gauge of where the charging stations are near you, you can go to these resources with EV charger locator tools:
- ChargePoint Map
- Plugshare Map
- U.S. Department of Energy map
Electrical vehicles are clearly becoming a priority by auto manufacturers. Ford, GM and a handful of luxury automakers are focusing on making cars that are sustainable and reduce carbon footprints.
The reason why EV charging stations are increasing is because so many people are moving into the city.
