The published evidence provides the starting point: Atlanta, GA's current ACS housing baseline includes 265,899 total housing units, 236,468 occupied units, and 29,431 vacant units. Those counts may help a borrower establish the scale of the measured housing base before comparing tenure, rent, current listings, property condition, and financing. The figures describe stock across the survey period; they do not say that 29,431 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. For borrower planning, reading 265,899 total units with 236,468 occupied and 29,431 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.
Atlanta, GA's ACS median gross rent is $1,711, while renter-occupied units account for 53.6% of occupied housing and owner-occupied units account for 46.4%.
