Birmingham, AL — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
ZIP code 35235, on the northeastern edge of Birmingham, sits in middle-income territory: a median household income of $63,295 and per-capita income of $32,084 place it above many Alabama communities but well short of affluent suburbs. Homes here carry a median value of $194,500, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.59% keeps annual housing taxes comparatively gentle. The trade-off arrives at checkout, where a combined sales tax rate of 10.00% applies to purchases. That split—lower taxes on property, higher taxes on spending—shapes the everyday cost of living for working households in this Birmingham-area ZIP.
