Brooklyn, NY — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In Brooklyn’s 11226 ZIP code, households earn a median of $81,014, while per-capita income reaches $45,308. A median home value of $876,600 pairs with a county property tax rate of 0.70%, so annual property taxes on such a home would run roughly $6,136. Sales tax in the area totals 8.88%, adding to everyday costs. With earnings at these levels, housing and taxes claim a meaningful share of income, though the property tax rate itself stays below many parts of New York. Budgeting here means weighing a substantial mortgage against ongoing sales tax expenses on regular purchases.
