Dale, NY — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
Dale's ZIP 14039 sits in middle-income territory, with a median household income of $62,917 and per-capita income of $29,919. Homes center on a median value of $171,400, and the county-level property tax rate of 2.25% means owners pay a noticeable share of that value each year. Add an 8.00% combined sales tax, and everyday purchases carry a real premium. This isn't an affluent enclave, nor a deeply struggling one—it's a working- and middle-class area where wages are steady but taxes claim a meaningful slice of the household budget.
