ZIP Code 59521

In ZIP code 59521, near Carter, homes carry a median value of $103,700, and the county's 0.98% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $1,016 a year on such a house. With median household income at $50,288 and per-capita income at $20,202, that annual tax bill equals about two percent of a household's earnings. No sales tax applies here, which keeps day-to-day purchases cheaper. The gap between the two income measures hints at varying household sizes and earners, so the property tax load can feel heavier for some owners than the median figures alone imply.
