ZIP Code 60639

ZIP code 60639 sits in Chicago with a median household income of $61,089 and per-capita income of $24,341, placing it in working- to middle-class territory rather than among the city's wealthier areas. Homes here carry a median value of $309,900, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.91% means owners pay a noticeable share of that value each year. Add Chicago's 10.25% combined sales tax, among the steepest in the nation, and everyday purchases cost more. Together these figures point to a community where wages stretch thinner and taxes take a real bite out of household budgets.
