ZIP Code 43527

With a median household income of $58,821 and per-capita income of $40,660, ZIP code 43527, near Defiance, sits in middle-income territory rather than among affluent areas. Homes here carry a median value of $136,300, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.17% means owners pay roughly $1,595 annually on a house at that price.
