ZIP Code 88029

In ZIP code 88029, near Columbus, homes carry a median value of $105,600, and the county's 0.54% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $570 a year on such a home. That figure sits against a median household income of $26,090 and per-capita income of $17,680, so the annual tax bill equals about 2% of what a household brings in. Sales taxes add 4.88% to purchases. Low home values keep the tax itself small in dollar terms, yet earnings here are low enough that the percentage of income going to property taxes stays meaningful.
