ZIP Code 10023

ZIP code 10023 sits on Manhattan's Upper West Side in New York, and its finances mark it as decidedly affluent. Median household income reaches $159,874, while per-capita income stands at $137,528 — both far above national norms. Homes here carry a median value of $1,358,100, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 0.92% translates into a substantial annual bill given those valuations. Add the combined sales tax rate of 8.88%, and everyday purchases carry a noticeable premium. High earnings and steep housing costs define this ZIP, where the tax load scales with the price of living in one of the city's priciest districts.
