Santa Barbara, CA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
Households in ZIP code 93463, near Santa Barbara, earn a median of $118,488, with per-capita income at $70,629 — placing the area firmly in affluent territory. Home values reinforce that standing: the median property is worth $1,114,500. Even so, the county-level effective property tax rate of 0.65% is gentle against that valuation, so annual tax bills stay contained despite steep prices. Add a combined sales tax of 7.75% on purchases, and the overall tax load skews toward consumption rather than ownership.
