ZIP Code 12583

Austerlitz (ZIP 12583) sits in affluent territory, with a median household income of $79,583 and per-capita income of $45,990. Home values run high: the median property is worth $462,500, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 1.89% means owners pay a substantial sum each year. Add an 8.12% combined sales tax, and the overall cost of living here leans heavy. This is not a working-class ZIP; incomes and housing prices both point to an established, well-off community where taxes take a meaningful bite out of earnings.
