Rent since 2014
ACS 5-year median gross rent for Atlanta city. Up 77% since 2014. Summerhill is 3% above the 2024 city median.
Overlapping 5-year ACS windows (B25064), not asking rent. Census does not publish a rent series for each official neighborhood, so the line is the city place. The dashed mark is this area’s ACS 2024 median.
HUD treats 30% of income as the cost-burden line. We do not split ACS rent into 1-bed vs 2-bed. Method.

On the ground
What it is like to live here, beyond the scores.
The official polygon is Summerhill. No census tract centroid sits inside it, so people and housing come from the tract that contains the neighborhood centroid. Crime points are still inside the polygon: 2 violent and 25 property. Violent Part I is 0.6 per 1,000. Property is 7.4. Rent is $1,769. Median age is 31.7.
Scores on this page stay inside Atlanta. Summerhill is the official City Planning neighborhood; other names are searches, not extra polygons. School ratings are not in this snapshot. A neighbor on the schematic map is not a shared fence. APD Part I here is NIBRS homicide 09A, rape 11A–C, robbery 120, and aggravated assault 13A as violent, plus burglary 220, larceny 23A–H, and motor vehicle theft 240 as property. Arson and the other Part I rows outside that set are not in the rate. Police beats and NPU letters are not this map. People and housing use the census tract that contains the neighborhood centroid. Crime is still the points inside the polygon.
