ZIP Code 30401

In ZIP code 30401, which takes in Swainsboro, homes carry a median value of $94,600, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 0.93% works out to roughly $880 a year on such a home. That tax bill sits against a median household income of $53,071 and per-capita income of $24,286, so owning property here claims a smaller share of earnings than in many places. Sales taxes, though, run 9.00% on purchases, adding to everyday costs that shape how far a paycheck stretches.
