Pittsburgh, PA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
ZIP code 15223, serving a Pittsburgh-area community, sits in middle-income territory, with a median household income of $61,083 and per-capita income of $37,959. Homes here have a median value of $166,300, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 1.52% means owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year. Add the 7.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall tax picture carries real weight against local earnings. This isn't an affluent enclave, nor a deeply strained one — it's a working- and middle-class area where taxes take a steady, noticeable bite.
