Sales Tax Calculator, North Richland Hills, TX

What shoppers pay in North Richland Hills, TX

North Richland Hills is a mid-sized Texas city, with roughly 69,917 residents. Texas charges a 6.25% state sales tax, and counties, cities and special districts add their own levies on top. Across the state those local add-ons average 1.94%, bringing the typical combined rate to 8.19%.

Census figures (ACS 5-Year 2023) put median household income in North Richland Hills at $93,434, or about $1,797 a week. At the state's typical combined rate, a $500 purchase adds $40.95 in tax, and a $2,000 one adds $163.80. That larger figure works out to roughly 9% of a week's median household income here, which is why timing a big appliance or furniture purchase around a sales tax holiday can be worth the wait.

One caveat matters before you budget from these numbers. The 8.19% above is a statewide average, not a rate we can confirm for a specific North Richland Hills address. Because special districts draw their own boundaries, two addresses a few streets apart can fall under different combined rates. For a purchase where the difference matters, check the rate lookup published by the Texas revenue department for the exact delivery address. Groceries are exempt in Texas, so a weekly food shop is not affected.
