ZIP Code 71837

In ZIP 71837, near Garland City, homes carry a median value of $114,500, and the county's 0.61% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $700 a year on a home at that price. Households here earn a median of $59,286, while per-capita income sits at $27,921, so property taxes claim a thin slice of annual earnings. Sales taxes, though, run 8.75% on purchases. Buyers drawn by low housing costs should weigh that tradeoff: owning is inexpensive, but everyday spending carries a higher rate than many places charge.
