Dover, DE — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
With a median household income of $44,634 and per-capita income of $14,421, ZIP code 19955 sits in working-class territory near Dover. Home values reach $225,500, yet the county-level property tax rate of just 0.43% keeps annual bills low by regional standards. No combined sales tax applies here at all, so everyday purchases carry no added state-and-local charge. That combination — below-average earnings alongside a below-average tax take — shapes a place where housing costs stay within reach but household budgets remain tight. The gap between the income figures and the home value hints at stretched finances rather than prosperity.
