ZIP Code 26823

With a per-capita income of $27,606, ZIP code 26823 sits in working-class territory, well below what many parts of the country report. That income level pairs with a county property tax rate of 0.38 percent, which keeps annual bills on the lower end for homeowners here. Shoppers in and around Levels pay a combined 6.00 percent sales tax on purchases, a mid-range figure that adds a bit to everyday costs. Together these rates mean the tax load stays restrained even though earnings are limited, so households keep more of what they bring in.
