Archibald, LA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
Households in the 71218 ZIP code, near Archibald, keep a larger share of each paycheck than many places allow. County property taxes run at just 0.28% of assessed value, so a home worth $150,000 would draw roughly $420 a year — a figure that barely dents monthly cash flow. Sales tax stands at 5.00%, adding a nickel to every taxable dollar spent locally. Together these rates leave earnings available for groceries, utilities, transportation, and savings rather than taxes. For a family earning around $50,000, that difference can shape whether the year ends with a cushion or a squeeze.
