ZIP Code 18342

In ZIP code 18342, near East Stroudsburg, households earn a median of $68,843, while per-capita income sits at $36,444. A home valued at $218,600 would carry an annual property tax bill around $3,629 at the county's 1.66% rate, a meaningful line item against that income. Add the 6.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and daily spending also trims what's left. Together these figures sketch a place where earnings stretch but require attention: housing costs and consumption taxes both claim shares of each paycheck, so careful planning shapes how far that median income actually goes.
