Property Tax & Hazard Risk Record: ZIP Code 94706, Alameda County
What owning here costs and what the federal hazard record says. Every figure below carries its source, its vintage, and its margin of error. Nothing is modelled or predicted.
Median property tax paid
Census survey estimate for the whole ZIP code area, not a bill for any property.
Median home value
0.83% or more effective rate — median tax divided by median value.
The Census caps median tax paid at $10,000 and this ZIP code sits at the cap, so the true rate is at or above this figure rather than equal to it.
Composite hazard rating
FEMA’s own rating for this area, apportioned from census tracts by population. Planning purposes only.
