ZIP Code 77473

In ZIP code 77473, near Bellville, the county-level property tax rate of 1.16% meets a per-capita income of just $9,553, a combination that makes homeownership a genuine stretch. Each $100,000 of home value generates roughly $1,160 in annual property taxes, and at this income level that bill claims a meaningful share of yearly earnings. Sales taxes add 6.25% to purchases, trimming spending power further. Together these figures sketch a place where buying a home demands careful planning, since taxes and income sit far apart in scale.
