6064 Kerns combines a lower-elevation settlement profile, the tax scenario sits close to the canton median, which makes it more useful for regional context than for a simple low-tax claim. With roughly 1'710 residents in the weighted view, the postcode is large enough for a serious comparison without pretending the whole area behaves like one block.

This postcode spans 2 municipalities. That means population and comparison figures should be read as weighted orientation rather than a single official municipal record.

  • Confirm the exact municipality for the address you care about when the postcode is split

Tax notes

ESTV
  • The tax figures compare a concrete household scenario and do not replace an official individual calculation.
  • For this postcode, the comparison can rely on a canton-median estimate. The ESTV calculator remains mandatory for the final number.
  • The exact address, deductions, and municipality assignment can materially change the final outcome.

Demographic notes

BFS
