Households in ZIP code 12143, near Albany, earn a median of $95,101, with per-capita income at $46,054 — placing the area solidly in middle-income territory rather than among the affluent. Homes here carry a median value of $234,000, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.76% means owners pay roughly $4,118 annually on a house at that price.
