ZIP Code 14055

ZIP code 14055, near Buffalo, sits in middle-income territory, with a median household income of $51,089 and per-capita income of $45,607. Homes here carry a median value of $203,300, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.98% means owners pay a noticeable share of that value each year in taxes. Add an 8.75% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall tax load takes a real bite out of local paychecks. This is a place where earnings land below the national median, so housing costs and taxes together shape day-to-day finances more than discretionary spending does.
