ZIP Code 28693

In ZIP 28693, near Creston, homes carry a median value of $171,800 while households earn a median of $62,596, and per-capita income sits at $29,659. The county's 0.49% effective property tax rate works out to roughly $842 a year on a home at that median value — a sum that stays contained against the income residents bring in.
