ZIP Code 38627

With a median household income of $62,826 and per-capita income of $39,618, ZIP code 38627 sits squarely in middle-income territory near Abbeville. Homes here carry a median value of $149,200, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.55% keeps annual tax bills on those properties comparatively restrained. Add a combined sales tax rate of 7.00%, and the overall picture is one of steady, working- and middle-class households facing a tax load that leans on consumption rather than property ownership. Incomes and home values track below metro averages, so the tax structure here rewards homeowners while everyday purchases carry a slightly higher share of the cost.
