Houston, TX — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP 77094, on Houston's west side, households earn a median of $139,932, while per-capita income reaches $77,175. That earnings base shapes how housing costs land: a median home value of $477,500 taxed at the county's 1.62% effective rate works out to roughly $7,700 a year in property taxes. Sales tax of 6.25% applies to purchases across the area. With income this high, both obligations absorb a smaller share of the annual budget than they would in many parts of the Houston metro, leaving room for savings, travel, or other priorities alongside the cost of owning a home here.
