ZIP Code 85035

In ZIP code 85035, on Phoenix's west side, households earn a median of $60,440 while per-capita income sits at $22,816 — a working- to middle-income profile by metro standards. Homes here carry a median value of $275,600, and the county's 0.44% effective property tax rate keeps annual bills comparatively contained. Sales tax is where the load shows: the combined 9.10% rate applies to everyday purchases, so a larger share of local spending feeds into the tax base than property ownership does. The result is a community where incomes stretch further on housing costs but day-to-day buying carries a heavier premium.
