ZIP Code 15635

With a per-capita income of $24,156, ZIP code 15635 sits in working-class territory, well below what you'd see in wealthier parts of Pennsylvania. Homes near Monessen carry a median value of $162,500, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.23% means owners pay roughly $2,000 annually on a house at that price. Add a 6.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall tax picture takes a noticeable bite out of paychecks that are already stretched. This is a place where housing costs stay within reach, but the tax load still weighs on household finances.
