Philadelphia, PA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP 19126, on Philadelphia's northern edge, households bring in a median of $53,176 a year, or $31,826 per person. With homes valued around $225,100 and the county's 0.82% property tax rate, annual property taxes land near $1,846, a real line item against that income. Add Philadelphia's 8.00% combined sales tax, and everyday purchases take a noticeable bite too. The gap between the median household figure and the higher per-capita number hints at smaller households, where a single earner's pay stretches further. Budgeting here means weighing a mid-range housing market against steady taxes on both property and spending.
