ZIP Code 95831

ZIP code 95831, in Sacramento, sits in the upper-middle-income tier: a median household income of $100,751 and per-capita income of $56,600 run well above regional norms. Home values are steep, with a median of $642,700, yet the county-level effective property tax rate of 0.73% keeps annual bills lower than many California homeowners face. Sales tax combines to 8.75%, a cost absorbed at the register on everyday purchases. Together these figures describe an established, financially comfortable area where housing wealth is substantial and the tax load leans on transactions rather than property ownership.
