The county's median property tax rate of 0.75% sits slightly above the state rate of 0.73% and the national rate of 0.74%, so homeowners face a tax burden close to the norm on relatively affordable homes.
Median household income is $41,315.50, trailing both the state figure of $44,600 and the national $65,108.
