Barnesville, OH — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP code 43909, near Barnesville, the county-level property tax rate is 0.95%, and the combined sales tax is 7.25%. Housing costs weigh heavily on what people bring home here. A home priced at the county median would generate an annual tax bill in the low thousands, an amount that can strain households earning below the state average. Because the rate is applied to assessed value, rising sale prices push tax bills higher even without a rate change. Local wages have not climbed at the same pace, so ownership stays difficult for many buyers in this part of Ohio.
