ZIP code 74747, centered on Mead, sits in working-class to middle-income territory. Per-capita income of $28,187 trails state and national averages, while a median home value of $114,400 keeps entry into homeownership within reach for earners at that level. Property taxes run at an effective 0.64 percent of value at the county level, so an owner of a median-priced home owes roughly $730 annually. Sales tax combines to 4.50 percent, a rate that adds comparatively little to everyday purchases. Together these figures describe a place where housing costs and tax obligations stay low enough to stretch a paycheck that would feel tight elsewhere.
