Arkadelphia, AR — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP code 71998, which takes in Arkadelphia, per-capita income stands at $4,087 — a figure that shapes nearly every spending decision households here face. Property taxes run at an effective rate of 0.56% at the county level, so a home's assessed value translates into a comparatively contained annual bill. Sales taxes are another matter: the combined rate reaches 10.00%, meaning everyday purchases carry a noticeable premium. With earnings this limited, that consumption tax takes a meaningful bite out of each paycheck, while the property levy stays the gentler of the two for anyone who owns a home.
