ZIP Code 66621

In ZIP code 66621, part of Topeka, per-capita income stands at $7,318, which shapes how much house buyers can carry. The county's effective property tax rate of 1.50% means a home assessed at $100,000 would draw roughly $1,500 in annual property taxes — a figure that looms large against such earnings. Combined with a 9.35% sales tax rate, everyday purchases also take a bigger bite. Together these costs squeeze housing choices, since property taxes scale with home value while income here stays low, narrowing what residents can realistically afford.
