ZIP Code 72626

In ZIP 72626, which takes in Gamaliel, households earn a median of $36,417, while per-capita income sits at $28,325. A median home value of $266,000 is high against those earnings, though the county's 0.46% effective property tax rate keeps the annual bill smaller than the price tag might imply. Sales taxes add up to 9.75% on purchases, a cost that weighs on spending power when paychecks are already stretched. Fitting a six-figure mortgage into a mid-thirties income demands careful planning, and everyday expenses carry a heavier load here than the property tax rate alone would show.
