Chicago, IL — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
ZIP code 60443, near Chicago, sits in middle-income territory, with a median household income of $92,136 and per-capita income of $44,084. Homes here carry a median value of $233,800, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 1.91% means owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year. Add a combined sales tax rate of 9.00%, and the overall tax load leans heavier than many parts of the country. Households earning around the median can cover these costs, though the property tax rate stands out as the steeper piece of the puzzle.
