ZIP Code 08023

With a median household income of $65,944 and per-capita income of $25,703, ZIP code 08023 sits in middle-income territory, centered on Alloway. Home values run near $149,100, and the county-level property tax rate of 2.93% is steep enough that owners here feel it each year. Add a combined sales tax of 6.62%, and the overall tax load takes a meaningful bite out of paychecks. This is a working- to middle-income area where housing costs stay within reach, but the property tax rate stands out as the heaviest single pressure on household finances.
