ZIP Code 62957

Homes around Cairo in ZIP 62957 carry a median value of $71,300, and the county's 1.81% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $1,290 a year on a house at that price. With median household income at $46,053, that bill equals about 2.8% of a typical household's annual earnings, while per-capita income sits at $30,204. Sales taxes add 6.25% at the register. Low home values keep annual tax bills small in dollar terms, though the rate itself is fairly steep, so owners here feel the levy through the percentage rather than the total.
