ZIP Code 19941

In ZIP code 19941, near Bethany Beach, homes carry a median value of $243,800 while the county-level effective property tax rate sits at 0.32%. That combination yields an annual property tax bill well below what many parts of the country see on comparable housing. Households here report a median income of $75,139, with per-capita income at $30,222, so the tax drawn from real estate absorbs only a thin slice of yearly earnings. No combined sales tax applies within this ZIP, which keeps day-to-day purchases free of that added cost and leaves earnings directed toward mortgage payments, upkeep, and other essentials.
