ZIP Code 87326

In ZIP 87326, near Gallup, households bring in a median of $34,773 a year, with per-capita income at $20,858. That earnings level shapes nearly every spending decision, since housing costs stay low by comparison: the median home value sits at $62,300, and the county's 2.00% effective property tax rate works out to a fairly contained annual bill on a home at that price. Sales tax in the area runs 4.88%, which adds a little to everyday purchases. With incomes at this level, stretching each dollar matters, and the lighter property tax load helps offset what sales tax takes at the register.
