ZIP Code 70551

With a median household income of $44,924 and per-capita income of $13,094, ZIP code 70551 sits in working-class territory. The area, anchored by Arnaudville, carries a county-level effective property tax rate of 0.29%, so property taxes take only a slim share of home value each year. Sales taxes, however, come in at a combined 5.00%, which adds up on everyday purchases for households at this income level. Together the figures point to a community where earnings stay below the national middle, property taxes stay gentle, and the sales tax does more of the work.
