Tallapoosa County, AL Property Records & Statistics
Tallapoosa County is one of the more affordable places to rent in Alabama. The median rent is $650, compared with $722 statewide and $840.25 nationally. Home values, however, run higher than the state: the median home value is $139,500, above the Alabama figure of $122,900 but still below the national median of $173,750. Renters get a discount, while buyers pay somewhat more than the state norm.
The median property tax rate is 0.3%, slightly under the state rate of 0.33% and far below the national rate of 0.74%. Even with higher home values, owners benefit from a low tax rate, which keeps yearly bills modest relative to what homeowners pay in many other parts of the country.
Median household income is $55,500, ahead of the state median of $50,535.50 though behind the national median of $65,108. Employment is the weaker spot: the unemployment rate is 4.09%, higher than the state rate of 2.71% and the national rate of 2.87%, suggesting the job market is tighter than average for residents.
Renter-occupied housing makes up 17.69% of the county, below the state share of 20.69% and the national share of 21.81%. That points to a market led by homeowners, with a smaller rental stock than most comparable areas.
