ZIP Code 26521

Homes in ZIP code 26521, near Morgantown, carry a median value of $70,000, and the county's 0.47% effective property tax rate works out to a yearly bill of roughly $329. That figure sits comfortably against a median household income of $80,625 and per-capita income of $49,134, so property taxes claim only a sliver of what earners bring in. The 6.00% combined sales tax applies to purchases rather than ownership, which keeps carrying costs on a home low. Buyers here can expect ownership to absorb little of their annual earnings.
