Living in Hampton



Hampton is a somewhat small city located in the state of Georgia. With a population of 8,267 people and nine associated neighborhoods, Hampton is the 114th largest community in Georgia. Hampton has seen a significant amount of newer housing growth in recent years. Quite often, new home construction is the result of new residents moving in who are middle class or wealthier, attracted by jobs, a healthy local economy, or other amenities as they leave nearby or far away areas for greener pastures. This seems to be the case in Hampton, where the median household income is $67,808.00.

Hampton real estate is some of the most expensive in Georgia, although Hampton house values don't compare to the most expensive real estate in the U.S.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 22.38% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county.

Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.
