The Pros of Living in Colquitt

  • Exceptionally Low Cost of Living: Living in Colquitt is highly affordable, with an overall cost of living roughly 16% lower than the Georgia state average. 

  • Highly Affordable Real Estate: The median home value hovers around $89,500 to $123,400, which is more than 60% cheaper than the national average, making homeownership accessible. Renting is also inexpensive, averaging around $699 to $730 per month. 

  • Unique Arts and Culture: Despite a population of just around 2,000 residents, Colquitt punches far above its weight culturally. It houses the Cotton Hall Theater—home to Swamp Gravy, Georgia’s official folk life play—and features over a dozen large, historic storytelling murals scattered across downtown. 

  • Tight-Knit, Peaceful Atmosphere: Residents enjoy a slow, quiet pace of life with minimal traffic, a friendly suburban-rural mix feel, and a low violent crime rate compared to major urban areas. 

    The Cons of Living in Colquitt

    • Stagnant Local Economy: The median household income is low, sitting at $26,375 to $41,484, which is up to 45% below the state average. 

    • High Poverty and Limited Jobs: The town suffers from a poverty rate of roughly 24% to 28%, more than double the national average. Job options are mostly limited to agriculture, local government, education, or healthcare via the local hospital. 

    • Lack of Amenities and Nightlife: Because of its remote location and tiny population, there are very few shopping or dining options (aside from a handful of local mainstays like Café Lele) and virtually no nightlife. Residents must drive to larger nearby cities for specialized medical care, shopping malls, or entertainment. 

    • Extreme Summer Weather: Like much of southern Georgia, Colquitt experiences intensely hot, humid summers and an active allergy season that can be uncomfortable for those unaccustomed to the deep South. 

    • No Public Transit: There is virtually no public transportation; 81% of working residents rely entirely on a personal vehicle to commute.
