ZIP Code 25149

In the Ashford area (ZIP 25149), per-capita income stands at $20,131, so housing costs weigh heavily against what people bring in. A county-level effective property tax rate of 0.67% means a $100,000 home would draw roughly $670 in annual taxes—a figure that climbs alongside assessed value, even though the rate itself stays fixed. Add a 6.00% combined sales tax on everyday purchases, and the squeeze on a limited income becomes clearer: property taxes claim a real share of yearly earnings, while each shopping trip trims what remains for mortgage or rent.
