With a median household income of $53,622 and per-capita income of $33,898, ZIP code 62439, centered on Bridgeport, sits in working- to middle-income territory rather than among affluent areas. Homes here carry a median value of $100,600, and the county-level property tax rate of 1.19% translates into a fairly contained annual bill on that base. Shoppers pay a combined sales tax of 7.25%, which adds to everyday costs but stays in line with much of Illinois. Taken together, the tax picture leans on consumption and property alike, while earnings remain below the state's higher-income brackets.
