ZIP Code 48227

ZIP code 48227 sits in Detroit, where a median household income of $36,527 and per-capita income of $20,496 place the area firmly in working-class territory. Homes here carry a median value of $75,100, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.63% applies against that lower base, so annual bills stay small in dollar terms even though the rate itself isn't trivial. Sales tax runs 6.00% on purchases. Together these figures describe a community where earnings and property wealth lag national norms, and where tax obligations are shaped more by modest home values than by high rates.
