ZIP Code 02912

In ZIP code 02912, which falls in Providence, per-capita income stands at $4,408, a figure shaped largely by the student population attending the university based here. That low income level sits alongside a 1.25% county property tax rate and a combined sales tax of 7.00%, so housing costs and everyday purchases both carry a measurable tax load. The gap between this area's earnings and the statewide picture is stark, and a household here would feel the sales tax on most purchases while property taxes apply at the county level regardless of income.
