ZIP Code 70661

In ZIP 70661, near Deridder, homes carry a median value of $83,700, and the county's 0.45% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $377 a year on a home at that price. That is a slim slice of the area's $24,917 median household income, though per-capita income sits at $22,715, so paychecks here stretch thin. A 5.00% combined sales tax applies to purchases. Low home prices paired with a low tax rate keep ownership within reach, but the gap between wages and everyday costs still shapes how far each dollar goes in this part of Louisiana.
