Los Angeles, CA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
ZIP code 90831 sits in Los Angeles, where the county-level property tax rate comes to 0.68%. That figure is well below California's statewide norm, so owners here keep a larger share of their home's value each year compared with many other parts of the country. The combined sales tax rate, however, reaches 9.75%, a level that adds up quickly on everyday purchases. Taken together, the two rates point to an area shaped by working- and middle-income households: ownership costs stay comparatively contained, while daily spending carries a heavier share of the public revenue load.
