ZIP Code 56343

Households in ZIP code 56343, centered on Alexandria, earn a median of $64,659, placing the area in middle-income territory rather than among affluent communities. Per-capita income reaches $46,914, and a median home value of $252,400 reflects steady local demand. Property taxes run at an effective 0.83% county rate, so a home at that median value would generate roughly $2,095 annually. Add a combined sales tax of 7.38%, and the overall tax picture stays moderate — noticeable in day-to-day purchases, but not out of step with what similar middle-income ZIP codes across the region absorb.
