ZIP Code 17730

In ZIP code 17730, which covers Dewart, households keep a bit more of each paycheck thanks to a 6.00% combined sales tax and a county property tax rate of 1.10%. On a $60,000 income, that property rate works out to roughly $660 a year for every $100,000 of home value, so a $250,000 house would carry about $2,750 in annual taxes. That leaves everyday spending on groceries, fuel, and other goods taxed at six cents per dollar. For families balancing a mortgage against regular expenses, the split between what's owed on a home and what's paid at the register shapes how far each dollar stretches.
