ZIP Code 81520

In ZIP code 81520, near Grand Junction, households earn a median of $50,283, with per-capita income at $27,088. Homes here carry a median value of $249,600, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.38% keeps annual housing taxes comparatively tame against that value. Sales tax across the area totals 2.90%, a figure that touches everyday purchases. Weighed together, these figures sketch a community where earnings trail the statewide picture but housing costs and both tax rates stay contained, so a household's take-home pay stretches further than it might in pricier Colorado markets.
