New York, NY — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP code 10002, on New York's Lower East Side, households earn a median of $48,386, while per-capita income reaches $48,650. That gap hints at smaller household sizes and a mix of earners across the area. Housing costs loom large: the median home sits at $827,800, and county property taxes run 0.92%, a hefty annual bill on such a valuation. Day-to-day purchases carry an 8.88% combined sales tax. With earnings near $48,000, stretching a paycheck across groceries, rent or mortgage, and everyday goods takes careful planning, since each dollar buys a little less than the sticker price suggests.
