Little Rock, AR — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
Residents of ZIP code 72119, which falls within Little Rock, face a county-level property tax rate of 0.77%. That rate sits below many parts of Arkansas, though the combined sales tax of 9.50% adds a noticeable cost to everyday purchases. Taken together, the tax structure leans on consumption more than property ownership, a pattern that tends to weigh more heavily on working- and middle-income households who spend a larger share of their earnings on taxable goods. The area's economic character reflects this mix: neither especially affluent nor deeply strained, but sensitive to how sales taxes shape the cost of living day to day.
