ZIP Code 61439

ZIP code 61439 sits in the Galesburg area, where households earn a median of $59,125 and per-capita income reaches $27,228 — squarely middle-income territory rather than affluent. Homes here carry a median value of $113,900, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.96% means owners pay a meaningful share of that value each year. Add a combined sales tax of 7.75%, and everyday purchases carry a noticeable premium. This is a working- to middle-income community where housing costs stay within reach, but the tax structure asks a steady contribution from paychecks and purchases alike.
