ZIP Code 81303

ZIP code 81303, in the Durango area, sits firmly in affluent territory. A median household income of $88,103 and per-capita income of $47,135 place it well above national norms, while a median home value of $597,300 signals a high-priced housing market. Property taxes stay low, though—the county-level effective rate is just 0.26%, so owners pay comparatively little on those valuable homes. The combined sales tax rate of 2.90% is also low, keeping day-to-day purchase costs down. High earnings and expensive real estate pair with a genuinely light tax load here.
