ZIP Code 75247

ZIP code 75247, on the western edge of Dallas, sits at the lower end of the income scale. A median household income of $20,200 and per-capita income of $10,136 place the area well below what most Dallas households earn, marking it as decidedly working-class. Property taxes here run at a county-level effective rate of 1.58%, and the combined sales tax rate reaches 8.25%. Those rates apply regardless of income, so a smaller earnings base carries a proportionally heavier load. Households in this ZIP spend a larger share of what they bring in on both sales taxes and any property they own.
