ZIP Code 15923

ZIP code 15923, centered on Monessen, sits in working-class to middle-income territory. Households earn a median of $57,167, while per-capita income reaches $29,656 — enough to cover daily needs without much surplus. Homes here carry a median value of $96,000, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.23% applies to that lower base, so annual bills stay contained. Add a 6.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall tax load lands in a range that many area households can absorb, though it still claims a noticeable share of earnings given the income levels.
