The real monthly cost of owning in Union City
Take the median $300,000 home with 20% down at today’s 6.71% 30-year rate: principal and interest run about $1,550/month. Georgia taxes 40% of fair market value: at Fulton County’s typical unincorporated millage of 25.95 mills, the median home’s bill is roughly $3,062/year ($255/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 $1,805/month to own the median Union City home.

- prices run 25% below the statewide median in our coverage
- 42% 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
- Georgia has a flat state income tax (about 5%, scheduled to keep stepping down), which Florida does not
