ZIP Code 78259

ZIP code 78259, on the northern side of San Antonio, sits firmly in affluent territory. A median household income of $114,156 and per-capita income of $52,695 both run well above national figures, and the median home value of $380,800 reflects that prosperity. Property taxes take a noticeable bite: the county-level effective rate of 1.73% means a home at that median value generates roughly $6,600 in annual taxes. Add an 8.25% combined sales tax, and residents here carry a fairly heavy overall tax load despite their strong earnings.
