The real monthly cost of owning in Hampton
Take the median $324,000 home with 20% down at today’s 6.95% 30-year rate: principal and interest run about $1,716/month. Georgia taxes 40% of fair market value: at Henry County’s typical unincorporated millage of 28.84 mills, the median home’s bill is roughly $3,680/year ($307/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 $2,022/month to own the median Hampton home.

Hampton: the case for and against
What works in Hampton’s favor
- prices run 19% below the statewide median in our coverage
- homes move quickly (median 44 days listed), so well-priced homes get competition
- 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
- Georgia has a flat state income tax (about 5%, scheduled to keep stepping down), which Florida does not
