ZIP Code 38343

ZIP code 38343, centered on Alamo, sits in middle-income territory, with a median household income of $58,260 and per-capita income of $33,663. Homes here carry a median value of $168,200, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.66% applies to that valuation. Sales tax is where the load shows most clearly: a combined 9.75% rate adds nearly a dime to every taxable dollar spent locally. That mix—steady earnings, moderately priced housing, and a steep consumption tax—shapes a working- to middle-class profile, where everyday purchases carry more of the tax weight than property ownership does.
