Batchelor, LA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
Homes near Batchelor in ZIP code 70773 carry an effective property tax rate of just 0.32%, one of the lower figures you'll find across Louisiana. That rate applies to county-level assessments, so the annual tax bill stays slim even as home values rise. A 5.00% combined sales tax applies to purchases in the area. Because the property tax takes such a thin slice of home value, buyers here keep more of what they earn each year, and the gap between income and housing cost stays wider than in parishes with steeper rates.
