ZIP Code 35661

In the Russellville area, ZIP code 35661 pairs a median home value of $191,800 with a county property tax rate of just 0.40%, so annual taxes on a home at that price come to roughly $767. With median household income at $74,310 and per-capita income at $34,403, that tax bill takes up a slim share of yearly earnings, easing the cost of owning a home here. A combined sales tax of 5.50% applies to purchases, though it doesn't touch property ownership.
