ZIP Code 12463

With a per-capita income of $45,701, ZIP code 12463 sits in middle-income territory, anchored by the town of Athens. Homes here carry a median value of $259,800, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.49% means owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year in taxes. Add an 8.00% combined sales tax, and the overall tax load takes a noticeable bite out of household earnings. This is a place where incomes are steady but not high, and where housing costs and taxes together shape how far a paycheck stretches.
