ZIP Code 03251

Residents of ZIP code 03251, centered on Waterville Valley, report a median household income of $70,625 and per-capita income of $49,951, placing the area in middle-income territory. Housing values run higher than that income might imply: the median home sits at $342,000, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.72% means owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year. No sales tax applies here, so everyday purchases escape that added cost entirely. The overall picture is a middle-income community where real estate wealth and property taxes shape the financial landscape more than income alone.
