ZIP Code 74359

ZIP code 74359, centered on Cookson, sits in working-class territory. A median household income of $45,625 and per-capita income of just $12,533 point to earnings well below what many American households bring in. Home values average $59,000, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.60% means an owner of such a home pays roughly $354 a year in property taxes. Sales taxes, though, run high at 9.20% combined, so everyday purchases carry a heavier cost than the income and housing figures might otherwise imply.
