Brooklyn, NY — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In Brooklyn's 11235 ZIP code, households earn a median of $59,661, while per-capita income reaches $40,548 — a mix that reads as middle-income, though rising home values tell a different story. The median home here is worth $721,100, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 0.70% translates into a substantial annual bill given that price point. Shoppers also pay an 8.88% combined sales tax. Compared with wealthier parts of the city, this ZIP sits in the middle of the economic spectrum: not working-class by income alone, but carrying property and sales tax costs that weigh heavily on ordinary earnings.
