ZIP Code 27565

In ZIP code 27565, which takes in Bullock, homes carry a median value of $204,000, and the county's 0.67% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $1,367 a year on a house at that price. With median household income at $56,432, that tax bill equals about 2.4% of annual earnings before any exemptions. Per-capita income sits at $31,256, so single earners may feel the pinch more sharply. A 6.75% combined sales tax also trims spending power, though it applies only to purchases, not to owning a home.
