ZIP Code 89831

In ZIP code 89831, near Elko, the county-level property tax rate of 0.49% is well below what many parts of the country charge, which keeps yearly housing costs down for owners. Combined with a 7.10% sales tax, the overall tax picture leans toward working-class and middle-income households rather than affluent ones, since neither levy takes an especially large bite. The lower property rate means owners here hold onto more of what they earn, though the sales tax applies to everyday purchases.
