ZIP Code 75573

In ZIP code 75573, near Texarkana, homes carry a median value of $159,500 while the county's effective property tax rate sits at 1.18%. That combination generates a yearly tax bill that stays contained against the area's median household income of $90,349, even though per-capita income is lower at $33,356. Buyers here stretch their earnings across a housing market priced well below many metro areas, and the 6.25% combined sales tax applies only to purchases rather than property. The result is a place where owning a home consumes a smaller share of household earnings than in costlier regions.
