ZIP Code 78747

Households in ZIP 78747, on Austin's southern edge, earn a median of $92,748, placing the area above the middle of the income range but short of the city's wealthiest pockets. Per-capita income sits at $43,578, and median home values reach $430,300. That housing figure drives the property tax picture: at the county's 1.48% effective rate, owners pay a substantial annual sum. Shoppers also face an 8.25% combined sales tax. Together these levies claim a meaningful share of local earnings, so even with solid incomes, residents here contend with a fairly heavy overall tax load.
