Enid, OK — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
ZIP code 73743, part of the Enid area, sits in working-class territory. Median household income of $45,313 and per-capita income of $28,827 fall below what many Oklahoma communities report. Housing costs track that pattern: a median home value of $65,000 means property taxes run about $566 a year at the county's 0.87% effective rate. Add a combined sales tax of 5.85% on purchases, and the overall tax load stays restrained because home values and incomes are both low. Households here stretch paychecks carefully, and the tax structure reflects a community where wages, not wealth, set the pace.
