ZIP Code 38459

ZIP code 38459, centered on Ardmore, sits in solidly middle-income territory, with a median household income of $96,429 — roughly a third higher than the U.S. midpoint. Per-capita income of $31,174 tells a different story, hinting at larger households pooling earnings. Homes carry a median value of $311,100, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.45% keeps annual bills near $1,400. That low rate offsets the 9.75% combined sales tax, one of the steeper rates around. So this is a middle-to-upper-middle community where housing costs stay contained while everyday purchases carry more of the tax weight.
