ZIP Code 75142

In ZIP code 75142, which takes in Crandall, households bring in a median of $80,028 a year, while per-capita income sits at $32,272. A median home value of $237,900 taxed at the county's 1.68 percent rate works out to roughly $4,000 in annual property taxes, a real line item against that earnings figure. Adding the 6.25 percent combined sales tax on everyday purchases, the overall cost of living here tilts toward housing and consumption rather than income taxes. Families earning near the median can cover these obligations, though the property tax bill deserves attention when weighing a home purchase at this price point.
