ZIP Code 12927

Households in ZIP code 12927, near Potsdam, earn a median of $68,125, with per-capita income at $43,043 — a middle-income profile rather than an affluent one. Homes here have a median value of $120,900, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 2.33% means owners pay a noticeable share of that value each year in taxes. Shoppers also face a combined sales tax rate of 8.00%. Together, these figures point to a working- to middle-income area where housing costs stay within reach but the tax load, particularly on property, takes a real bite out of earnings.
