ZIP Code 79373

In ZIP code 79373, which covers Tahoka, homes carry a median value of $137,100, and the county's 1.77% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $2,427 a year on such a home. With median household income at $74,728 and per-capita income at $38,104, that tax bill equals about 3.2% of household earnings — a share many homeowners elsewhere would find enviable. The 8.25% combined sales tax rate adds to everyday costs, but the lighter property-tax load tied to lower home values keeps ownership within reach for buyers earning around the area median.
