Houston, TX — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP code 77077, on Houston's west side, homes carry a median value of $379,700 while the county-level effective property tax rate sits at 1.62%. That combination yields an annual property tax bill of roughly $6,150 before any exemptions. With median household income at $72,871, that levy equals about 8.4% of a household's yearly earnings — a meaningful slice of the budget. Per-capita income reaches $52,913, and purchases face an 8.25% combined sales tax rate. Buyers weighing a move here should factor the tax load alongside the mortgage, since the rate applies to assessed value regardless of what a household earns.
