ZIP Code 38563

With a median household income of $50,313 and per-capita income of $35,820, ZIP code 38563 sits in middle-income territory rather than among affluent areas. Home values average $241,300, yet the county-level property tax rate of 0.47% keeps annual property taxes comparatively gentle on that valuation. Sales tax, meanwhile, reaches 9.75% on purchases, a heavier cost that residents absorb in daily spending. This mix — decent earnings, a solid housing stock, and a tax structure weighted toward consumption rather than ownership — shapes the economic character of the Riddleton area, where households earn steadily but still watch what they spend.
