Population Density
Carver Hills, a neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia, has experienced significant population fluctuations and recent rapid growth. This study examines the changes in population density from 2010 to 2022.
In 2010, Carver Hills had a population of 384 with a density of 1,168.6 people per square mile. The population grew moderately until 2015, reaching 427 residents. In 2016, the population decreased to 334, possibly due to urban redevelopment, changes in housing availability, or economic factors.
From 2017 onwards, Carver Hills has seen consistent population growth. Between 2020 and 2022, the population increased from 570 to 806 residents, representing a 41% growth in two years.
As of 2022, the population density reached 2,452.85 people per square mile, indicating a transition towards a more densely populated suburban environment. This density suggests a mix of housing types, potentially including single-family homes, townhouses, and possibly low-rise apartments or condominiums.
The rapid population growth may indicate urban revitalization efforts or increased neighborhood appeal due to improvements in infrastructure, amenities, or housing options. It may also reflect broader urban migration trends or changes in the local job market.
Based on the estimated 309 housing units for the 2022 population, Carver Hills appears to be a small but growing neighborhood. The increasing density suggests a trend towards more compact living arrangements.
Carver Hills maintains a density that balances urban conveniences with aspects of suburban living. This could make it attractive for residents seeking proximity to Atlanta's urban core while retaining a neighborhood atmosphere.
The neighborhood's evolution necessitates monitoring of how population growth affects local infrastructure, community dynamics, and resident quality of life. Carver Hills represents a case study in urban development and neighborhood transformation within a major American city.
