Peoria, IL — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
ZIP code 61615, on Peoria's north side, sits squarely in middle-income territory. A median household income of $79,817 and per-capita income of $55,272 place it above many Illinois communities, while a median home value of $215,700 keeps it within reach for working households. The county-level property tax rate of 2.24% means owners of a home at that median value owe roughly $4,800 annually, a meaningful carrying cost. Add a combined sales tax rate of 9.00%, and everyday purchases carry a noticeable premium. Together these figures describe a solidly middle-class area where earnings are decent but taxes claim a real share.
