ZIP Code 25305

In ZIP code 25305, near Charleston, the county-level property tax rate is 0.65%, and the combined sales tax comes to 7.00%. What a household actually pays in property taxes depends on home value, so a $200,000 house would generate roughly $1,300 in annual tax at that rate, while a $400,000 home would owe about twice that. Because the rate itself stays fixed, buyers weighing a move here should compare the price of the home against what they earn, since the tax bill scales directly with value rather than with income.
