New York, NY — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP code 10168, part of New York, households face a combined sales tax rate of 4.38%, while the county-level effective property tax rate comes to 0.92%. That property figure applies to assessed home value, so a higher-priced home in this Manhattan ZIP translates into a larger annual bill even at a rate below one percent. Sales tax touches everyday purchases, from groceries to services, adding up gradually across the year. Together, these two levies shape what a household keeps after income and housing costs are covered, with the sales tax felt continuously and the property tax arriving in lump sums tied to ownership.
