ZIP Code 35405

In ZIP 35405, near Tuscaloosa, homes carry a median value of $234,000 while households earn a median of $62,301. The county's effective property tax rate of 0.32% works out to roughly $749 a year on that median home — a figure that sits easily alongside monthly housing costs. Per-capita income reaches $36,235. A combined sales tax of 10.00% does add to everyday expenses, but the property tax itself claims well under 2% of median household income, so owning a home here leaves room in the budget for other priorities.
