ZIP Code 12547

Households in ZIP code 12547, near Kingston, earn a median of $88,778, with per-capita income at $55,077 — placing the area in middle-income territory rather than among the affluent. Homes here carry a median value of $377,200, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.77% means owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year. Add an 8.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall tax load is noticeable but consistent with what many mid-Hudson Valley communities assess. Incomes support ownership, though the tax structure claims a real slice of household budgets.
