Houston, TX — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
ZIP code 77035, on Houston's southwest side, sits in middle-income territory. Households here earn a median of $58,686, with per-capita income at $34,739 — enough to get by in a major metro without reaching its upper brackets. Homes carry a median value of $283,800, and the county's 1.62% effective property tax rate translates into a meaningful annual bill on that amount. Add Houston's 8.25% combined sales tax, and everyday purchases carry a noticeable premium. This is a working- to middle-class pocket of the city where incomes are steady but not high, and taxes take a real bite out of the household budget.
