ZIP Code 80421

In ZIP code 80421, near Arvada, homes carry a median value of $578,700, yet the county-level effective property tax rate sits at just 0.33%, yielding an annual tax bill well below what that rate might imply elsewhere. Households here earn a median of $98,452, with per-capita income at $60,069, so the tax drawn from a median-priced home absorbs only a slim share of yearly earnings. Sales tax adds 2.90% at checkout. The gap between elevated home values and a low rate keeps ownership within reach for many working households.
