ZIP Code 74883

With a median household income of $41,696 and per-capita income of $20,886, ZIP code 74883 sits in working-class territory. Homes near Stuart carry a median value of $92,000, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.60% keeps annual bills low in dollar terms. That advantage fades at the register, though: the combined sales tax rate of 10.50% is steep, so everyday purchases take a bigger bite out of paychecks here. The result is a place where housing costs stay within reach but daily spending carries a heavier share of the load.
