What is the cost of living in Castlewood Section IV-II?
Cost details like a regional price parity index and category breakouts for housing, goods, and utilities were not provided for Castlewood Section IV-II, so I can’t accurately compare overall costs to the national average using an index where 100 equals the U.S. average. What we can quantify is property tax: Highland Village’s city property tax rate is $0.5010 per $100 of valuation, and the Denton County property tax rate is $0.1859 per $100. Together, that’s an estimated $0.6869 per $100 before any school district or special district rates, which were not provided here and can materially change the all-in bill. Using the area’s typical home value of $464,000 as a reference point, even small rate differences matter, so buyers should always confirm the full tax breakdown for a specific address. On the income side, the 75077 area’s median household income of $127,211 and per capita income of $55,240 suggest many households plan for a higher-cost North Texas lifestyle. And because Texas has no state income tax, many residents find they can redirect some of that would-be withholding toward housing and local taxes.
