ZIP Code 70769

In ZIP code 70769, near Donaldsonville, homes carry a median value of $311,500 while the county's effective property tax rate sits at 0.54%. That combination yields an annual property tax bill well below what many homeowners elsewhere pay on comparable housing. With median household income at $109,404 and per-capita income at $47,532, residents here earn enough that housing costs and property taxes together take up a smaller share of earnings than in many parts of the state. Sales tax runs 5.00%, which keeps everyday purchases from eroding the advantage created by low property taxes.
