ZIP Code 56515

Battle Lake, ZIP 56515, sits in solidly middle-income territory, with a median household income of $73,750 and per-capita income of $45,590. Home values run high against those earnings: the median house is valued at $398,500, and the county's 0.77% effective property tax rate yields a real bill on that price. Sales taxes add 7.38% at checkout. The result is an area where property wealth outpaces local paychecks, so owning here ties up a meaningful share of income even though the tax rate itself stays below many parts of Minnesota.
