ZIP Code 44503

ZIP code 44503 sits in Youngstown, where the median household income is $12,274 and per-capita income is $12,093 — figures that place this area among the lowest-income parts of Ohio. Property taxes run at a 1.30% effective rate at the county level, while the combined sales tax rate is 7.50%. With earnings this far below state and national norms, the tax load weighs heavily against what households bring in, even though the property rate itself isn't unusually steep. This ZIP is decidedly working-class and economically distressed, and its tax structure reflects the strain of funding local services on a very thin income base.
