ZIP Code 97877

In Baker City (ZIP 97877), household earnings run low: the median sits at $25,662, with per-capita income at $22,559. Property taxes are collected at a county rate of 0.73%, so a home's assessed value matters a great deal against those wages. A $200,000 house would generate roughly $1,460 in annual tax, though the actual figure depends on each property's assessment. Combined sales tax is 0.00%, which keeps day-to-day purchases untaxed. The tension here is between what homes cost and what people bring in, since even a low rate adds up when incomes are this size.
