ZIP Code 28683

Households in ZIP code 28683, near Ararat, report a median income of $45,423, with per-capita income at $22,233 — a working-class profile by most standards. Homes here carry a median value of $176,600, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.60% translates into a comparatively gentle annual bill on that value. Sales tax stands at 7.00% combined, so everyday purchases carry a steady cost. The gap between home values and earnings means housing absorbs a meaningful share of local budgets, though the low property tax rate eases ownership costs somewhat.
