Take the median $304,000 home with 20% down at today’s 6.71% 30-year rate: principal and interest run about $1,571/month. Georgia taxes 40% of fair market value: at Douglas County’s typical unincorporated millage of 31.41 mills, the median home’s bill is roughly $3,757/year ($313/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 $1,884/month to own the median Douglasville home.
