ZIP Code 57339

With a median household income of $46,136 and per-capita income of $14,849, ZIP code 57339, centered on Fort Thompson, sits in working-class territory. Homes here carry a median value of $121,700, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.40% keeps annual bills on such a home near $487. That lighter property levy is offset by a combined sales tax of 8.40%, which shapes day-to-day costs more than homeownership taxes do. Household earnings land below many state and national benchmarks, so the overall picture is one of stretched but steady finances rather than comfort or affluence.
