San Bernardino, CA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP code 92369, near San Bernardino, per-capita income stands at just $5,435, which shapes nearly every housing decision here. A county-level effective property tax rate of 0.70% means a home assessed at $250,000 would carry roughly $1,750 in annual taxes — a steep sum against such limited earnings. Sales tax adds 7.75% to purchases, trimming whatever remains after housing costs. Together these figures paint a market where ownership demands careful weighing, since even a lower-priced home can absorb a large share of yearly income once taxes are factored in.
