Detroit, MI — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
Households in ZIP code 48183, near Detroit, earn a median of $83,508, placing the area in middle-income territory rather than among metro Detroit's wealthier suburbs. Per-capita income stands at $40,624, and a median home value of $222,500 reflects a housing stock priced within reach of working and middle-class buyers. Property taxes run at an effective 1.63% county rate, so owning that median home carries a meaningful annual bill. Add a 6.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall tax load takes a steady share of local earnings without rising to the levels seen in more affluent communities.
