ZIP Code 54403

ZIP code 54403, covering part of Wausau, sits in middle-income territory: a median household income of $69,030 and per-capita income of $39,420 place it above many Wisconsin communities without reaching affluent levels. Homes here carry a median value of $192,600, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 1.47% means owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year in taxes. Add a combined sales tax rate of 5.50% on purchases, and the overall tax picture reflects a working- to middle-income area where housing costs stay within reach but tax obligations remain a real line item.
