ZIP Code 92678

In ZIP code 92678, near Irvine, households earn a median of $98,333, with per-capita income at $48,248. Home values run high—a median of $1,007,500—yet the county-level property tax rate of 0.66% keeps annual taxes lower than many California markets demand. Sales tax totals 7.75%, a cost that touches everyday purchases. With earnings near six figures, buyers here can carry a seven-figure mortgage while absorbing both taxes, though the gap between median income and median home value shows how much of the budget goes toward housing.
