ZIP Code 00982

In ZIP code 00982, households bring in a median of $28,906 a year, with per-capita income at $16,284 — a spread that leaves little slack once routine costs are covered. Property taxes run at an effective 0.47% of value at the county level, so a home assessed at the median $143,100 generates an annual bill near $673. The sharper pressure comes at the register: the combined sales tax rate is 11.50%, among the highest anywhere, which takes a noticeable bite out of everyday spending. Together these figures point to tight margins, where housing costs stay containable but each purchase carries extra weight.
