ZIP Code 36759

ZIP code 36759, near Selma, sits in working-class territory. A median household income of $30,441 and per-capita income of $25,138 both fall well below statewide norms, while a median home value of $61,200 reflects a housing stock that trades cheaply. Property taxes stay low here: the county-level effective rate is 0.41%, so a home at that median value carries a bill of roughly $250 a year. Sales tax, at 5.50% combined, adds a bit more to everyday purchases. Incomes are limited, but so are the housing costs and the property tax bite that comes with them.
