ZIP Code 00987

ZIP code 00987 sits in working-class territory, with a median household income of $43,159 and per-capita income of $22,739. Homes here carry a median value of $158,600, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 0.47% keeps annual property taxes comparatively restrained given that valuation. The heavier hit comes at the register: a combined sales tax rate of 11.50% applies to purchases, which takes a larger bite out of everyday spending in a community where incomes are already stretched. Households here balance a lighter property tax obligation against one of the steeper sales tax rates anywhere.
