ZIP Code 14882

Households in ZIP code 14882, near Ithaca, bring in a median of $91,960 a year, with per-capita income at $43,028. A median home value of $318,700 paired with the county's 2.24% effective property tax rate means annual property taxes land around $7,100. Add the 8.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and a meaningful share of earnings goes toward housing and consumption taxes. Even so, income at this level can cover those obligations while still funding savings, transportation, and everyday expenses, though buyers should factor the property tax bill into any home-purchase calculation.
