ZIP Code 33493

In ZIP code 33493, near West Palm Beach, homes carry a median value of $137,000 and the county's effective property tax rate of 0.86% works out to roughly $1,178 a year. With median household income at $53,083, that tax equals about 2.2% of annual earnings—a figure shaped less by the rate itself than by the gap between per-capita income of $12,511 and total household earnings. Sales tax adds 6.50% on purchases. Homeownership here hinges on how many earners share a household, since individual incomes alone would strain against even this below-average tax load.
