San Diego, CA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In San Diego's 92054 ZIP code, households earn a median of $82,408, while per-capita income sits at $47,250. With home values averaging $908,900, property taxes at the county's 0.68% rate would run roughly $6,180 annually for a median-priced home — a meaningful line item against that income. Sales tax adds 8.25% to most purchases, trimming day-to-day buying power. Together these costs shape how far a paycheck stretches here: housing takes the largest bite, and everyday spending carries a visible tax load, leaving households to weigh each expense against what they bring in.
