ZIP Code 11101

In ZIP code 11101, near Jamaica, homes carry a median value of $971,300, and the county's 0.87% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $8,450 a year on such a home. With median household income at $121,062 and per-capita income of $84,207, that tax bill equals about 7% of household earnings — a meaningful slice, though high local paychecks help absorb it. The 8.88% combined sales tax adds further cost to daily purchases, so buyers here weigh a steep purchase price against incomes that, while strong, still stretch to cover both mortgage and tax.
