ZIP Code 26508

Households in ZIP code 26508, near Morgantown, report a median income of $90,041, with per-capita income at $51,488. A median home value of $311,500 pairs with a county property tax rate of 0.47%, which keeps annual housing taxes comparatively contained against that income level. Sales tax across the area totals 7.00%, applying to everyday purchases rather than income or property. Taken together, the two rates shape day-to-day costs differently: property taxes scale with home value, while sales tax follows spending. That split leaves room in a budget shaped by steady earnings and above-average home prices.
