ZIP Code 17211

Households in ZIP code 17211, centered on Alum Bank, bring in a median income of $53,750, with per-capita income at $32,994 — squarely middle-income territory rather than affluent. Homes here carry a median value of $169,400, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.81% translates into a comparatively gentle annual bill on that value. Sales tax across the area sits at 6.00%. Taken together, the tax picture leans lighter than many parts of Pennsylvania, which helps stretch a mid-range paycheck further for the working- and middle-class families who call this stretch of Bedford County home.
