ZIP Code 14223

ZIP code 14223, in the Buffalo area, sits squarely in middle-income territory, with a median household income of $84,161 and per-capita income of $47,588. Homes here carry a median value of $216,500, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.98% means owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year. Add an 8.75% combined sales tax, and everyday purchases cost noticeably more. Compared with wealthier suburbs, this ZIP leans toward working- and middle-class households, where wages are steady but the combined property and sales tax load takes a real bite out of annual budgets.
