ZIP Code 12823

Households in ZIP 12823, near Argyle, earn a median of $118,783, placing the area well above middle-income territory and closer to affluent. Per-capita income of $48,211 tells a similar story. Property taxes run at a county-level effective rate of 2.01%, applied to a median home value of $194,800 — so owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year. Add a 7.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall tax load is substantial despite the strong earnings. The gap between high household income and a comparatively lower median home value shapes how taxes land here.
