ZIP Code 60612

In Chicago's 60612 ZIP code, median household income stands at $60,922, while per-capita income reaches $45,933. A median home value of $364,600 meets a 1.91% county property tax rate, which works out to a meaningful annual bill for owners. Add the combined 10.25% sales tax charged on purchases, and the cost picture tightens: housing carries the heaviest weight, with the sales tax taking a bite out of everyday spending. Whether that balance feels comfortable depends largely on how income, home value, and these two rates line up for each household.
