Zillow Home Value Index (all homes, smoothed, seasonally adjusted), August 2026. A typical value is a benchmark for the area, not a price for a particular home. Counties: share of each ZIP code’s land area, U.S. Census Bureau 2020 ZIP code (ZCTA) to county relationship file. Many addresses in both ZIP codes sit outside Acworth city limits.
Acworth's two ZIP codes
The county shares and housing counts on this page come from the Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs), which approximate the Postal Service's delivery areas. A ZIP code is a mail route, not a city or county boundary, so an Acworth mailing address can sit outside city limits and in any of four counties. Confirm the ZIP and preferred city name for a specific address with the USPS ZIP Code Lookup.

Which Acworth ZIP code costs more
30101 costs more; 30102 sells faster
On every measure available, 30101 is the more expensive ZIP code. Zillow's typical value was $53,568 higher in August 2026 ($432,126 against $378,558). The gap in actual sales was smaller: Redfin's March to May 2026 median sale price was $410,000 in 30101 and $390,000 in 30102. 30101 also had more sales (221 against 171), but homes in 30102 sold faster, in a median 30.5 days against 38.5, and for an average 98.7% of list price against 97.5%. Over ten years, 30102's typical value rose 96.77% and 30101's rose 85.23%. The Acworth housing market page breaks these down by home type.
Zillow assigns each ZIP code to one county
Zillow files 30101 under Cobb County and 30102 under Cherokee County, but those labels cover only the largest share of each ZIP. About half of 30102's land is outside Cherokee, mostly in Bartow, and about a quarter of 30101's is in Paulding. A home's ZIP code tells you nothing certain about its county.
How to use ZIP code data when you shop
Treat ZIP values as a starting point
A ZIP code's typical value blends very different homes, from older ranches to new construction. For example, Zillow's August 2026 value for the City of Acworth itself was $406,860, between the two ZIP figures. Use ZIP values to compare areas, then look at recent sales of similar homes nearby; the Acworth neighborhoods guide shows the main areas in each ZIP.
Confirm the county before you estimate costs
Your county sets your property tax rate, homestead exemption office and school district. Look up the parcel on the county tax assessor's site before you estimate a tax bill; for Cobb homes, the Cobb County property tax guide shows the math.
Check city limits separately
An address that says "Acworth" is not necessarily inside the City of Acworth. Both ZIP codes reach far beyond city limits, and only homes inside the city pay city property tax and get city services. The county parcel record shows which taxing districts apply to a home, so check it for any listing you are serious about.
Check schools by address, not ZIP
School assignments follow district boundaries, not ZIP codes. Use the Cobb County School District attendance zones or the Cherokee County School District maps for a specific address.
