In ZIP code 70653, near Deridder, homes carry a median value of $111,800 while households earn a median of $69,318, and per-capita income sits at $33,638. The county-level effective property tax rate of 0.36% works out to roughly $400 annually on a home at that median value — a notably slim share of yearly earnings.
