ZIP Code 99589

In the Akiachak area, ZIP code 99589, homes carry a median value of $137,500 while the county's effective property tax rate sits at just 0.12%. That combination yields an unusually slim annual tax bill, though household earnings here are limited: median household income is $26,875, and per-capita income reaches only $11,190. With no combined sales tax charged on purchases, the overall tax picture stays unusually lean. Even so, a home priced near $137,500 is a heavy lift against incomes at this level, so the low rate eases ownership costs without dissolving the broader gap between local wages and local housing prices.
