ZIP Code 70094

Households in ZIP code 70094, near Metairie, bring in a median income of $53,597, with per-capita earnings of $27,258. A median home value of $159,700 taxed at the county's 0.52% effective rate works out to a comparatively small annual property tax bill, which leaves breathing room in a monthly payment. Sales taxes add 5.00% at checkout, so everyday purchases chip away at earnings gradually rather than all at once. With income levels where they are, housing costs stay the dominant expense, and the property tax rate keeps that ownership cost from climbing much further.
