ZIP Code 21677

In ZIP code 21677, near Cambridge, homes carry a median value of $328,600, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.94% works out to roughly $3,089 a year on such a home. With per-capita income at $42,343, that tax bill equals about 7.3% of one person's annual earnings — a meaningful share. Sales tax adds 6.00% to purchases. Whether that housing cost feels comfortable depends heavily on household composition: a single earner faces a steeper climb than a dual-income household, even though the rate itself sits below many parts of Maryland.
