ZIP Code 19146

In Philadelphia's 19146 ZIP code, households earn a median of $103,059, with per-capita income at $69,373. That earnings base shapes how far a dollar stretches in a city where the combined sales tax reaches 8.00%. A median home value of $461,000 carries an effective county property tax rate of 0.82%, which works out to a few thousand dollars annually rather than a crushing sum. Higher earnings here can absorb both the purchase price and the ongoing tax bill, though the sales tax adds up on everyday spending. The overall picture is one of solid earning power paired with real ownership costs.
