New businesses in Atlanta benefit from knowing the biggest industries and population trends in the area. Atlanta has been on the radar for decades as a booming metropolis with a greater influx of new residents than most other cities in the country. Because of its business climate (we recently found Atlanta to be one of the top cities for small businesses) and sheer size, Atlanta is the center of southeast development. That reputation is going strong. Here are some details of area code 470.
The top ten employers in Atlanta, GA are Delta Air Lines, The Home Depot, AT&T, Gwinnett County Public Schools, Wellstar Health System, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Emory Healthcare, Walmart, Northside Hospital, and UPS.
Emory University and the CDC have made Atlanta a healthcare innovation center, and the outsized hub airport has made transportation and freight key factors in the local economy. Atlanta is also home to one of the fastest-growing film industries in the US.
Another critical benefit of Atlanta’s position is its easy access to the rest of the east coast. All of the area code 470 operates on Eastern Standard Time. Atlantans don’t have to go far to serve populations in Florida and up the eastern seaboard to other commerce centers.
Atlanta’s urban population increased 1.9% from 2019 to 2020. It’s part of Fulton County, which has an unemployment rate of 8%. Atlanta’s household income is $111,013.
In Atlanta’s booming business climate, these three industries from census.gov have risen to the top:
Comprehensive services including professional, scientific, management, and administrative and waste management services
Educational, health care, and social assistance
