Overland Park, KS — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
Homes in ZIP code 66251, part of Overland Park, carry a county-level property tax rate of 1.14%, while purchases there are taxed at a combined 9.35%. That pairing places the area in solidly middle-income territory: the property rate sits near the middle of what Kansas counties levy, neither sheltering high-value homeowners nor straining entry-level buyers. Shoppers absorb a sales tax that runs above the national average, a common pattern in metro Kansas City suburbs where retail corridors help fund local services. Together the two rates sketch a community whose tax load tracks its standing — comfortable but not cushioned, paying its share through both the home and the checkout counter.
