Wilmington, NC — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In Wilmington's 28403 ZIP code, households earn a median of $54,547 — below what the area's $386,700 median home value might imply, hinting that many owners bought before prices climbed or stretch to keep up. Per-capita income sits at $41,022. Property taxes run at a county rate of 0.54%, a comparatively gentle pull on ownership costs given those home values. Add a 7.00% combined sales tax, and everyday purchases carry a noticeable premium. This reads as a middle-income pocket of Wilmington where housing wealth and paycheck income have drifted apart.
