ZIP Code 22902

Households in ZIP code 22902, around Charlottesville, bring in a median of $93,463 a year, with per-capita income at $60,883. A median home value of $436,200 taxed at the county's 0.75 percent rate works out to roughly $3,272 annually in property taxes. Combined with a 5.30 percent sales tax, those obligations still sit comfortably against local earnings, since the property levy amounts to only a small share of yearly household income. That leaves room in most budgets for other priorities, whether savings, commuting costs, or the higher prices that come with living near a university town.
