ZIP Code 60131

ZIP code 60131, on Chicago's near west side, sits in middle-income territory: a median household income of $76,658 and per-capita income of $31,323 place it above many parts of the city but well short of affluent suburbs. Homes here carry a median value of $287,000, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.91% translates into a meaningful annual bill on that amount. Add a 9.00% combined sales tax, and everyday purchases cost noticeably more. Working families in this ZIP balance moderate earnings against property and consumption taxes that claim a steady share of income.
