Hapeville
A small city on Hartsfield-Jackson's north edge, with a historic downtown and a market small enough that mix moves the median.

The 60-second read
Hapeville is a small market: 45 FMLS closings in the 12 months through September 2026, at a $420,000 median. The city sits directly on Hartsfield-Jackson's north boundary, with Delta's headquarters and the Porsche Experience Center at its edges and a historic downtown at its core.
Read the numbers with care. The annual median jumped from $338,500 in 2024 to $455,990 in 2025, a move that says more about which homes sold than about every house appreciating that much. In a 45-sale market, a few large closings swing the median. Sales did average 98% of list, so what sells here sells close to asking.
What the housing stock actually is
Hapeville's typical sale is compact: the middle half ran 1,131 to 1,860 square feet, priced $265,000 to $479,000 at a median $206 per square foot. The scale fits the city, small lots on an old street grid around the historic downtown, with some newer townhome product in the mix. Only 4% of sales since 2020 were homes built 2020 or later.
The trend line is the thing to respect. Annual medians ran $288,250 in 2021, $283,000 in 2023, $338,500 in 2024, then $455,990 in 2025, per FMLS data compiled by the Terence Richardson Group. That's not smooth appreciation; that's a small market where the mix of what sold changes year to year. Price the specific house, not the citywide number.
