Chicago, IL — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP code 60304, on Chicago's western edge, households earn a median of $136,178, or $66,770 per person. A median home is valued at $466,700, and county property taxes run 1.91% of that value, an annual bill near $8,900 before any exemptions. Sales taxes add 9.00% to most purchases, so everyday spending carries a noticeable premium alongside the housing costs. Together, the two taxes draw on both income and consumption, while the elevated home values here mean property levies account for a substantial share of ongoing ownership expenses.
