The real monthly cost of owning in Chatsworth
Take the median $248,000 home with 20% down at today’s 7.40% 30-year rate: principal and interest run about $1,374/month. Georgia taxes 40% of fair market value: at Murray County’s typical unincorporated millage of 23.45 mills, the median home’s bill is roughly $2,280/year ($190/month) after the standard homestead exemption — county and school exemptions vary and can lower it; inside a city, add the city millage. Georgia homeowners insurance runs well below Florida’s coastal premiums for most of the state; get a quote on the specific address, since roof age and wind exposure still move it. All in, budget on the order of $1,564/month to own the median Chatsworth home.

Chatsworth: the case for and against
What works in Chatsworth’s favor
- prices run 38% below the statewide median in our coverage
- 62% of sales are new construction, so builder incentives and warranties are part of the market
- property tax is levied on 40% of value, so the effective rate is lower than the millage suggests, and most counties add homestead exemptions on top
What to plan for
- only about 3.0 months of supply, so choice is limited in the most popular price bands
- Georgia has a flat state income tax (about 5%, scheduled to keep stepping down), which Florida does not
