ZIP Code 99835

ZIP code 99835, centered on Sitka, sits in affluent territory for Alaska. A median household income of $101,727 and per-capita income of $46,118 place it well above national norms, while a median home value of $450,300 signals a costly housing market. Property taxes stay restrained: the county-level effective rate of 0.46% means a home at that median value carries roughly $2,071 in annual property tax. Sales tax adds 6.00% to purchases. So this is a high-earning, high-home-value area where the property tax bite stays comparatively gentle, though everyday spending carries a steady sales tax.
