ZIP Code 94933

In ZIP code 94933, near Novato, homes carry a median value of $862,100, yet the county-level effective property tax rate of 0.66% translates to roughly $5,690 a year for a median-priced house. Households here earn a median of $133,006, with per-capita income at $85,793, so that annual tax bill absorbs a smaller share of earnings than in many California communities. Sales tax stands at 8.25% on purchases. Even so, the gap between home values and local incomes keeps buying costly, and the property tax remains a real recurring cost alongside a mortgage.
