ZIP Code 36301

In ZIP code 36301, which covers part of Dothan, homes carry a median value of $164,100 while the county's effective property tax rate sits at 0.31%. That combination yields a yearly property tax bill well below what many parts of the country see. Households here earn a median of $50,125, with per-capita income at $29,844, so the tax on a median-priced home takes only a thin slice of annual earnings. Daily purchases, however, face a combined sales tax of 9.00%, a cost that falls on spending rather than ownership.
