Prices are actual closed sales, not asking prices.

How this list is built
Every community is a Georgia MLS subdivision with its own page on this site and at least 3 closed residential sales between September 18, 2025 and September 18, 2026. Rankings use closed prices, square footage, year built and today’s active count from the MLS record (medians are taken over each community’s most recent closings, up to twelve; closing counts are the full 12-month total) — nothing subjective, no school, safety or demographic scoring. Communities with fewer closings are on the city’s community pages but are not ranked here. Listing data © 2026 Georgia MLS; deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Equal Housing Opportunity.
