ZIP Code 76203

With a per-capita income of just $4,029, ZIP code 76203 stands among the lowest-earning areas in Denton, a figure that reflects a student-heavy population rather than a conventional household economy. Property owners here face an effective county tax rate of 1.61%, while purchases carry a combined sales tax of 6.25%. That split matters: the sales tax applies broadly to everyday spending, and the property levy falls on owners in a place where reported earnings are exceptionally thin. Together they shape a distinctive tax picture in this part of Denton, where income levels sit far below statewide norms yet tax rates remain standard.
