Cobb County

Cobb County is located northwest of the Chattahoochee River along the I-75 corridor and includes the cities of Marietta, Smyrna, Mableton, Powder Springs, Acworth, and the East Cobb area. It is a draw for families looking for single-family homes with space, family-friendly amenities, and convenient highway access. Cities like Marietta and Mableton have charming, historic downtowns, and newer areas like Smyrna Market

Village and The Battery offer plenty of options to dine and play without leaving the county. The average home cost $463,645 in Q3 and Q4 2022, slightly more affordable than the metro average. Most homes are single-family homes in subdivisions, but townhome neighborhoods are also popular and condominiums are available in places like Cumberland, Vinings, and Smyrna.

Planned developments include corporate offices like the new Truist Securities headquarters in Cumberland; apartments, hotels, and shops around The Battery; the expansion of Avenue East Cobb; a new town center in Powder Springs; a 1,400-lot active adult community at Nature Walk at Seven Hills; and pockets of single-family home and townhome construction.
