ZIP Code 12734

In ZIP code 12734, near Monticello, households bring in a median of $56,740 a year, while per-capita income sits at $25,716. With home values averaging $382,800 and the county property tax rate at 2.00%, annual property taxes could exceed $7,600 for a home at that value, a heavy claim on earnings. Add an 8.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and everyday spending costs more too. The gap between income and housing costs shapes daily choices here, since property taxes alone would absorb a significant share of a median household's annual earnings before other expenses.
