ZIP Code 71666

In ZIP code 71666, near Arkansas City, household budgets get pulled in two directions. The county-level property tax rate sits at 0.54%, so a home's assessed value translates into a fairly contained annual bill. That leaves more of each paycheck for everything else — though the combined sales tax rate of 11.00% takes a noticeable bite out of everyday purchases, from groceries to gas. For a family weighing where to settle, the trade-off is clear: ownership costs stay tame, but spending at the register costs more.
