ZIP Code 36205

In ZIP code 36205, near Anniston, homes carry a median value of $251,600 while the county-level effective property tax rate sits at 0.42%. That combination yields a yearly tax bill well above what many local paychecks can absorb: median household income here is $24,734, and per-capita income reaches $21,831. A 5.00% combined sales tax adds further cost to everyday purchases. The gap between home values and earnings means ownership in this area demands a substantial share of income, even though the tax rate itself is low.
